Abstract
Implementation of agent based intelligent technologies in the environment of distance learning can individualise learning, enable an optimal use of learning resources and ensure effective interaction with all participants of the learning process. In recent scientific literature, however, only descriptions of individual agents or small agent groups that support one learning activity may be found. The article describes a designed system of pedagogical software agents that integrally supports the learning process and that is adapted to virtual learning environment Moodle.
