Abstract
The article is devoted to the issues of digitalization of the lecture form of work at a university. It is shown that a number of problems associated with modern social and personal transformations lead to a decrease in the effectiveness of the classical lecture. A new approach to the lecture process is proposed, based on the use of multimedia lectures with an intelligent pedagogical agent in the educational process. It has been shown that the use of such lectures can help improve the effectiveness of training sessions. To practically test the effect of applying the approach, a training system is designed and implemented to ensure the creation and use of multimedia lectures. Information is provided about the information model underlying the system and its cloud architecture. The operation of a demonstration prototype of a multimedia lecture player, including the functionality of a pedagogical agent, is described. It is concluded that it is possible to build a player, including the functionality of a pedagogical agent running on consumer-level computer devices. Plans for further research are presented.
