Abstract

Currently, universities base all their efforts on improving student learning. To achieve this, they improve their educational methods and work in training the teaching staff in new techniques that transform traditional learning into active learning. Active learning seeks to make the student the main actor of his own education, with this, the student is free to learn what he owes and does so in a time appropriate to his needs. This need grows when the evolution of education conforms to online education models. Online education, although presented as an accessible option for all sectors of society has several complications such as high dropout and low learning rates. New technologies act as ideal assistants to solve these problems, because, through an application, they have the ability to interact with people and improve learning processes. Artificial intelligence interacts with users and simulates a person. These tools allow improving management in educational processes. This work aims to apply a Chatbot applied to a learning management system in the online education model.
