Abstract

There are many Arabic educational resources on the web scattered in personal websites and forums, and created by members of the community. Searching for such resources using regular search engines is not an easy task. In this paper we describe "Marifah", an Arabic Learning Object Repository with recommendation capabilities, created for hosting Arabic learning objects and serving the needs of the Arabic educational community. The repository has integrated advanced features that cannot be fulfilled using well-know search engines.
