Teachers working in robotics classes face a major problem: how to keep track of individual students ’ or even small groups ’ progress in a class of 30-40 students. A multi-agent environment to help teachers with this problem is based on having pedagogical agents to monitor students ’ interaction, robots’ movements, and the construction and programming process of robots. Mobile interaction agents move in network delivering agents ’ observations to teacher’s visualization agent. Results of a linguistic analysis show the possible problems in educational robotics settings where the proposed agent-based system could help. 1.
