The development of multimodal conversational systems is currently a very active research topic. The design and performance of these systems involves different and the interconnection of very heterogeneous components. In this chapter, we describe the rich variety of educative applications of multimodal conversational systems, covering several objectives and strategies that include tutoring, second language learning, learning companions, pedagogical agents, etc. We also describe a general framework to develop pedagogic conversational interfaces for mobile devices. The preliminary evaluation of the application shows the possibilities of our framework to develop pedagogical conversational agents targeted at different populations and pedagogical contents.
