Abstract :
The current systems for the support of online learning provide a certain degree of multimedia capability by allowing users to access online learning objects but are still limited when accessing the actual content of learning objects and exchanging experiences about the learning objects. The work introduced in this paper describes an innovative multimedia tool for enriched communication between users and highly flexible control of the use of learning objects.
