Abstract
The Learning Object idea is based on the premise that the reuse of learning material is very important for designing learning environments. The reusability of learning objects results from the product of three main features: modularity, discoverability and interoperability. In this paper we discuss how these features can be useful when added to pedagogical agents. This approach considers learning objects built according to agent architectures: the Intelligent Learning Objects approach.
