Abstract :
To build an interactive mechanism for a distance learning environment such as a scientific experiment, the architecture of the learning environment and assisting agents should be taken into consideration first. Another issue for constructing an interactive mechanism is the protocols between the environment and the agents. An experiment action language is designed for this purpose. In addition, a method for agents to infer rules is also presented in this paper
