Nowadays, E-learning is dynamically changing the phase of educational system. It has played a big role in providing academic resources to distance and continuing educational systems that helped the students and Instructor in coping with the demand of the fast-driven learning setup. Because of its importance, the demand to enhance its capabilities in the searching and presentation of its learning resources is now the focus of some researches.
In this paper, the researcher presents a new framework for an E-learning system with enhanced searching capabilities. The proposed framework is mainly focused on the improvements of the search capability to obtain more refined search results including the functionalities to be able to handle failed searches. The main contribution of this research study is to present a new and efficient e-learning framework that will be used as a model for the development of an e-learning system, integrated with search auditing functionality.
