Last time, we might have omitted some of our outputs, so regular updates will ensure that the document is complete when required for the next funding phase.

He will reach out to Xenia to discuss the details. It will take place on the 28th or 29th of August.

First invitations were sent to Corpus Coranicum and Averroes Edition. + +- Projects + + - Prof. Gründler saw a presentation on the Kitab project during the conference in Venice. They have made their website more user-friendly and implemented a new feature visualizing text reuse among the documents. They also offer to perform a text reuse test on any PDF sent to them by external users and display it on their website since they want to expand their database. + +- DH Course + + - Theo's course ended last week. It was well attended, and some students became really motivated to engage more with DH. + - In one of the sessions, students were shown eScriptorium and were directly interested in using it in their studies and academic practice. However, attempts to make it work on their machines were unsuccessful, even with the use of Docker. It is very complicated to set it up, even when consulting official documentation. + - Possible solutions would be to first ask FUB-IT to create an eScriptorium instance for the FU so that it can be used with students. Secondly, we could ask Hamburg University to share their instance with us, as they have a large community working with eScriptorium. Alternatively, we could seek advice from Uni Mannheim, which is also an important hotspot for engagement with eScriptorium. + - Theo's course should be offered again by his successor in the coming semesters. It'd be advisable to have at least one DH course in the Arabistik course catalog. The course could be open to other seminars to increase the number of participants. + +- Next meeting: 05.08. at 11:30 + ##2024-06-28 **Time**: 10:30 - 12:00 (Berlin) @@ -9,7 +53,7 @@ - SHK - We have hired two student assistants who should start at the end of August.
