Abstract :
Discusses several aspects of the ETOILE (Environment for Team Organizational and Individual Learning in Emergencies) system, which may be considered to be a knowledge networked environment. These aspects are: authoring, the combination of agents and the integration of knowledge sources (databases of external simulators), the visualization of behaviour in a 3D virtual environment, the design of the human-agent interface, and the modelling, description and assessment of human behaviour. Based on our experiences in the ETOILE project, conclusions are drawn for the design of a knowledge networked environment for learning purposes
