Lecture videos contain most of the instructional content. These videos contents are in general non-scripted and unedited and thus do not provide the required level of interactivity from such material. Therefore, these videos fail to captivate students' attention for long and thus their effective use remains a challenge. In this regard, Media Learning Object (MLO) can play an important role in future flexible education. MLOs are media rich documents that have pedagogical values encapsulated with all needed features such as navigation structures and surrogates. The aim of this research work is to develop a framework for the creation, storage, distribution and evaluation of MLOs. We will use the developed framework in pilot courses and evaluate the learning experience and outcome of teaching experience based on MLOs. The ultimate goal is to develop this framework as a platform with a set of tools for processing and analyzing the media collected from the different courses and their annotation with automatically extracted meta-data. Additionally, media browsing and interaction structures will be developed and embedded in the created MLOs to facilitate the interaction and use of such objects in everyday studies.
