Webinar: teaching humanities in the age of AI (11 November, 3pm GMT)
by Emily Middleton 05 Nov '25

05 Nov '25

Hi all, Please see below for details of an event happening next week in collaboration with Gale and *Research Information* on project-based learning with Gale Digital Scholar Lab. You can register for the webinar, taking place 11 November at 3pm GMT, here: https://event.webcasts.com/starthere.jsp?ei=1738439&tp_key=9c1868453f. Full info: https://www.researchinformation.info/webcast/teaching-humanities-in-the-age… Teaching Humanities in the Age of AI – 11 Nov 2025, 3pm GMT. Supported by Gale REGISTER FOR FREE <https://event.webcasts.com/starthere.jsp?ei=1738439&tp_key=9c1868453f> AI is one of the biggest global challenges to education. Coming at a time when universities also face ideological attacks, and disciplines in the arts and humanities are continually asked to demonstrate their modern relevance, the explosion in the use of generative AI tools has rocked how we teach and learn. The principal challenge comes from the ease with which learners can generate plausible-looking written work. Managing this puts a significant burden on institutions to develop policies around the use of AI, and on educators themselves. Consequently, many Higher Education institutions are exploring new ways to adapt and to develop AI-resilient methods of teaching, learning and assessment. This webinar will discuss alternatives that hold great potential in the face of AI: Project Based Learning (PBL) and digital humanities techniques. Drawing on real-life classroom experiences, we’ll see how introducing PBL through *Gale Digital Scholar Lab* provides a framework for teaching which is broadly AI-resistant, helping students to use GenAI responsibly and be critical of data, as well as giving them new ways of communicating in digital environments. Who Should Attend? Educators, librarians, curriculum development staff and university leadership who are: • Concerned about AI; • Looking to work out how best to evolve assessment in the world of GenAI; • Interested in incorporating DH into their curriculum; and • Already using digital humanities in their classroom, but looking for further tips and advice. What You’ll Learn • How digital humanities and Project-Based Learning can future-proof classrooms in the face of AI; • How to use tools which help educators new to digital humanities get started quickly; • Practical solutions for classroom use; • Ways to boost student digital literacy, and responsible use of AI; • Evidence of the continuing value of traditional humanities skills; and • Ways to champion humanities departments which are looking to demonstrate their relevance. SPEAKERS: Dr Emily Middleton Lecturer in Digital Humanities, University of Leeds Drawing on Emily’s classroom experiences using the Lab, we’ll gain a clear understanding of how digital humanities and Project-Based Learning provide a framework for her students to develop important critical and digital skills to navigate the new GenAI environment effectively and ethically. Chris Houghton Head of Academic Partnerships, Gale Chris, Head of Academic Partnerships at Gale, leads initiatives to integrate digital scholarship into humanities and social science practice. He will summarise the Gen AI landscape and outline the links between AI, digital humanities, and Project-Based Learning. MODERATOR: Tim Gillett, Research Information SPONSORS: <https://www.gale.com/> Gale, part of Cengage Group, partners with librarians and educators around the world to connect learners to essential content through user-friendly technology that enhances experiences and improves learning outcomes. www.gale.com Webcast date: 11 November 2025 - 15:00

Seminar Announcement – George Bruseker, Ontologies for Art History: Modelling Creative Processes and Evolving Meanings (3 November, 4 p.m., Rennes 2 / online)
by clarisse bardiot 29 Oct '25

29 Oct '25

Dear colleagues, Here is a seminar announcement that may be of interest to some of you. Best regards, Clarisse Bardiot George Bruseker - Takins.solutions Ontologies for Art History: Modelling Creative Processes and Evolving Meanings. 3 novembre, 16h, salle T 233 (hybride) This lecture explores how formal ontologies and semantic data modelling can help art historians represent and connect complex cultural information in ways that go beyond the structuration and mindset imposed by traditional databases. We will examine how such approaches can support expressive and representative research datasets that have much more capacity to capture the complexity and nuance of the historical record while also standing as sus- tainable resources that can be reused across projects and disciplines. I will first reflect on the strengths and limitations of existing standards such as the CIDOC Conceptual Reference Model, now widely used in cultu- ral heritage documentation. I will then introduce two recent ontological frameworks: the Creative Process Representation Ontology (CPRo), which en- ables the modelling of creative activity as it unfolds across processes, forms into documents, is reinterpreted and performed; and the Art and Architectural Argumentation Ontology (AAAo), which provides a way to repre- sent social facts, conventions, and the evolving meaning and valuation of works over time. Throughout, I will illustrate these ideas with examples from art history, showing how they can illuminate not only objects and texts but also the dynamics of events, collaborations, and reception. No prior knowledge of ontologies or data modelling is assumed; the emphasis will be on making these ideas accessible and relevant to historical research on the arts. George Bruseker is a researcher and practitioner in semantic data modelling and cultural heritage informatics. He is Vice Chair of the CIDOC CRM Special Interest Group and co-founder of Takin.solutions Ltd., where he leads projects on ontological modelling and semantic platforms for heritage data. He is also a Research Affiliate at the Swiss Art Research Infrastructure (SARI). Trained as a philosopher and historian (PhD, University of Athens), Bruseker has contributed extensively to international standards such as CIDOC CRM, Linked.Art, and the Arches platform. His work develops frameworks for representing creative processes, social valuation, and provenance in art history, making complex heritage information more interoperable and reusable across disciplines and time. Seminar L’art des données, les données de l’art – Season 3 As part of the European research project STAGE – From Stage to Data: The Digital Turn of Contemporary Performing Arts Historiography, directed by Clarisse Bardiot, this research seminar offers an in-depth introduction to the issues, concepts, methods, and tools involved in the digital study of texts, images, and cultural data. It aims to address the challenges and opportunities related to the use of digital data in art research – particularly in the developing fields of digital art history and culture analytics – and to show how the digital humanities open new research perspectives in the humanities. The seminar takes place on Mondays from 4 to 6 p.m.: – in person at the Villejean campus of the University of Rennes 2 – or online via Zoom. Registration is required via the following form so that the link can be sent to you.

by Wagner, Andreas 24 Oct '25

24 Oct '25

(Apologies for crosspostings you may receive) Dear all, we are excited to publish the final program of the Workshop "Reference Extraction at the Intersection of AI Research and the Digital Humanities: Validation, Interoperability and Collaboration", to be held at the Max Planck Institute for Legal History and Legal Theory<https://www.lhlt.mpg.de/> (mpilhlt) in Frankfurt/Main on Tuesday, 4th Nov 2025. It is the second workshop in the "New Approaches for the Extraction of Heterogeneous Reference Data" series<https://mpilhlt.github.io/reference-extraction/> at mpilhlt started in 2023. This informal meeting is meant mainly to foster collaboration and knowledge exchange between researchers and practitioners working at the intersection of data extraction, artificial intelligence, and the digital humanities. In the workshop, we continue to address the challenge of extracting heterogeneous references from texts, particularly from historical documents and humanities or legal scholarship. This second workshop focuses on three key themes emerging from the 2023 discussions: 1. Validation: How can we evaluate and benchmark the performance of different reference extraction tools and approaches, particularly with large language models? 2. Interoperability: How can we ensure that different tools, datasets, and workflows can work together effectively through shared data models and formats? 3. Collaboration: How can researchers, developers, and institutions work together to advance the field of reference extraction? The program is attached and available online at: https://mpilhlt.github.io/reference-extraction/workshop-2025/programme/ The event will take place in-person and online. Please register at https://plan.events.mpg.de/e/refextract25 if you haven't done so already. A link for online attendance will be sent to registered participants before the event.
