Deployed within theclassroom, the system will also provide tools to assist teachers inmonitoring students' activities and progress. This paper describesthe conceptual and architectural design of the system, and gives adetailed technical explanation of a working proof-of-concept prototypeof the architecture, motivating in particular the technologies andapproaches chosen to implement the necessary functionality given thecontext of the project. We also discuss how the prototype willbe used as a basis for developing the first full version of the MiGensystem, in the context of ongoing knowledge acquisition and analysiswithin the project's iterative, stakeholder-centred design,development and testing methodology.
