This computer application is adapted to the student’s cognitive level through Artificial Intelligence (software agents: Adaptability, Pro-activity, Sociability, Autonomy and Reactivity). Initially, this software includes only the mathematics discipline content of 4th grade of elementary school, specially geometry providing the financial burden reduction and less time to deliver the student evaluation result.}, }
