Abstract:
The DeLC (Distributed eLearning Center) project aims to develop an interactive, proactive and personalized e-Learning environment. Two nodes of DeLC architecture are presented in the paper. The first node is a service-oriented portal, providing personalized educational services and teaching material. The second node is an agent-oriented server which incorporates three agents supporting electronic testing of students. This paper focuses on the hybrid architecture, known as education cluster, which integrates the two nodes. The main results of the use of the cluster are increased interest and more active inclusion of the students in the education process.
