An application for the collaborative development of semantic content

This paper shows an approach to build communities of students working collaboratively to create educational content. We present an evaluation of the usability of a customized semantic environment and show how it interacts with a semantic wiki-based approach. Additionally, a proposal for a manageable hybrid methodology for the creation of ontologies is given. The result is a tool: OntoWikiUTPL and SemanticWikiUTPL, which allows the academic community to create semantic content. Thus, it is an interesting step toward innovation in interactive educational projects and collaborative activities in the Universidad Técnica Particular de Loja (UTPL).
