Abstract
In this work, we describe an approach and a conceptual architecture of a supporting teaching tool that takes into account two main objectives in new teaching trends: Virtual Learning Environments (VLEs) and Intelligent Pedagogical Agents (IPAs). We additionally present an Android application that uses the IPA as a standalone application as an initial step towards the realization of such an architecture.
