Today, search engines play an important role in retrieving documents from a large database. The key success factors of these engines are their indexing and searching techniques.These engines have touched many areas to help their users to find the desired resources in a fast and accurate way. The field of teaching and research take advantage of these engines to offer them to the interested actors (students, teacher, staff, etc.) in order to find the desired learning objects.There are several prominent educational search engines in the field implementing the techniques of indexing and searching either classic, semantic, metadata. However, most engines do not mix all of these to achieve important results.The engine which will be presented in what follows benefits from the best techniques of the literature, and offers a more relevant searching.
