ProfAI – Agente codocente para mediação pedagógica em ambientes virtuais de aprendizagem
Abstract
Learning Management Systems (LMS), such as Moodle, systematize tasks but offer limited support for individualized student large-scale dynamics by instructors. This paper presents ProfAI, an intelligent agent designed to support pedagogical activities within Moodle. The system combines Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) for static content with LMS integration for dynamic interactions. Execution takes place on local or institutional infrastructure, avoiding reliance on external online services and ensuring compliance with personal data protection regulations. ProfAI provides students with individualized feedback and acts as a teaching assistant within the pedagogical dynamic, contributing to secure and replicable models of intelligent interactive agents in e-learning.
