The DicWiki is a tool that generates dynamic dictionaries that can automatically be personalized and updated at the same time. The way DicWiki works is simple: every time one enters a new term in DicWiki, the application automatically looks for words and concepts on reliable sources such as Wikipedia, but also on other specialized sources. Ultimately, DicWiki automatically generates a multilingual dictionary of a precise subject and draws up a downloadable text file which includes terminology in English, Catalan, Spanish and French as well as reference sources.
In our opinion, to collect and bring together related concepts of a specific topic from relevant sources may be extremely useful for creating teaching materials, writing theses and papers, or just updating information. Moreover, DicWiki keeps the user from carrying out endless and complex Internet searches.
Our team is now also planning to integrate DicWiki to the university search tool employed to look for educational contents.
