Abstract:	The animated characters in multimedia learning systems are also termed animated pedagogical agents. One important benefit of animated pedagogical agent is to increase the social dimensions or sociability of interactive instructional systems in non-verbal forms of communication, such as body gestures, speech, and facial expressions. Many researches have evidences that animated pedagogical agents can have positive impact on cognitive and affective development of learners . This paper proposes a courseware that has been developed to encourage computer-assisted learning in Taiwan elementary education. And the important point of this paper is an animated pedagogical agent based learning system. The designed courseware provides a learning system for learners in elementary education to interact with curriculum scripts authored by teachers. We utilized the instruction of traffic safety as the interactive learning materials and the subjects of this study were 34 third grade students from a class of a elementary school in Taichung County. The subjects were divided into two groups. The controlled group was provided the PPT(Power Point) learning material which usually made by most teachers. The experimental group was provided the learning material which made by courseware , and broadcasted by the learning system. After surveying the pupils of two groups actually, relevant data got are found after analyzing, the pupil of learning system using this research institute to make can really get better study effect.
