Abstract:	In recent years, many new technologies have been used to enhance the learning outcomes of learners in online learning. Video annotation is one of these new technologies which is an innovative way to make learning more interactive and engaging. It can accommodate different learning styles by turning passive video-watching into an active learning experience. This research aims to evaluate the effectiveness of an e-Learning platform incorporating a Video Annotated Technique. Learners can pinpoint challenging parts of educational videos and then receive personalised explanations from their teachers. The primary purpose of these annotations is to clarify and provide thorough explanations of complex topics, ultimately improving understanding and making preparation for final examination tests easier. This paper presents a new personalization approach by managing the learners' annotations. Furthermore, it offers a video annotation tool incorporated into an e-Learning environment. This tool was tested on a sample of students, and the experimental results demonstrated a significant positive impact on learners' performance. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
