Abstract: The goal of this study is to propose a virtual classroom tool integrated within an e-learning 2.0 architecture supported by a multi agent system with auction-based approach. The proposed architecture and related features aim to provide the teacher / tutor with functionalities for monitoring, planning courses or redesigning them if necessary. The main purpose was to design a Multi Agent System (MAS) structure working in synergy with the learning environment chosen in order to simplify the management of the whole on-line training process. Specific constraints for defining the rules of the auction approach have been adopted. The test results have shown that intelligent agent technology can be used to personalize the learning environment and as a consequence to improve eLearning effectiveness.
