The rapid increase of online educational content has made it harder for students to find specific information. E-learning recommender systems help students easily find the learning objects they require, improving the learning experience. The effectiveness of these systems is further improved by integrating deep learning with multi-agent systems. Multi-agent systems facilitate adaptable interactions within the system's various parts, and deep learning processes extensive data to understand learners' preferences. This collaboration results in custom-made suggestions that cater to individual learners. Our research introduces a multi-agent system tailored for suggesting learning objects in line with learners' knowledge levels and learning styles. This system uniquely comprises four agents: the learner agent, the tutor agent, the learning object agent, and the recommendation agent. It applies the Felder and Silverman model to pinpoint various student learning styles and organizes educational content based on the newest IEEE Learning Object Metadata standard. The system uses advanced techniques, such as Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) and Multilayer Perceptrons (MLP), to propose learning objects. In terms of creating personalized learning experiences, this system is a considerable step forward. It effectively suggests learning objects that closely match each learner's personal profile, greatly enhancing student engagement and making the learning process more efficient.
