mgpimentel

My name is Maria da Gra?a Pimentel, or just Maria :-)

I am an Associate Professor at the Computer Science Dept of the University of S?o Paulo at S?o Carlos, in Brazil. See http://www.icmc.usp.br/~mgp/

I have been working with Wikis since my visit to Georgia Tech from Oct/1998 to Jan/2000, when I first met Mark Guzdial

My group has developed a Wiki in PHP in several versions, which we have made available in the sourceforge (http://freshmeat.net/projects/coteia/)and FAPESP virtual incubador (http://incubadora.fapesp.br/mailman/listinfo/coteia-devel) repositories.

The most active servers we have are:

• starting in 2004, http://coteia.icmc.usp.br with 210 entries and 1796 pages
• starting in 2002, http://coteia.unicoc.com.br with 66 entries and 499 pages
• starting in 2001, http://coweb.icmc.usp.br with 152 entries and 3530 pages

We have added one implementation to a LMS currently under collaborative development by a group of universities in our state, as illustrated by the report Collaborative writing in distance education available from http://tidia-ae.incubadora.fapesp.br/portal/documents/external_documents/IIWTF/fullpapers/15328.pdf
