Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) There are two kinds of learning effects expected of providing a learners a Cooperative Learning Environment. One is a fixing of problem-solving knowledge by way of reflection which is facilitated by explaining to peer students(Learning by Teaching). The other is an aquisition of problem-solving knowledge by way of observing peer student's behavior(Learning by Observing). We propose an Intelligent Cooperative Learning Environment the purpose of which is an enhancement of these learning effects by embedded Taught Agent and Observed Agent called Peer Agent. Taught Agent's aim is to facilitate a real student's Learning by Teaching, and Observed Agent's aim is to facilitate his/her Learning by Observing. These agents'behavior are controlled by Facilitator Agent. Facilitator Agent adopts more effective strategy according to a real student's state about problem-solving knowledge and cognition of peer student's state. Moreover, he amends adopted strategy to enhance real student's cognitive ability about peer student's state, and instructs a Peer Agent to behave with on amended action.
