SUMMARY:Harvard Workshop: Research Methods in Islamic Studies
DESCRIPTION:Summary: In this workshop\, researchers will learn how to organize\, manipulate\, and visualize their data. We will first focus on good data organization practices and use spreadsheets to tidy and wrangle several datasets. We will then manipulate\, clean\, and enhance our data in OpenRefine\, a powerful tool for working with messy data. Finally\, we will demonstrate how it is possible to visualize and understand clean data. \nRequirements: Attendees should bring laptops with Excel\, OpenOffice\, or LibreOffice installed; they should also install OpenRefine (http://openrefine.org/download.html) prior to the workshop. \nContact: Please RSVP at bit.ly/AISP2019 and contact Johannes Makar\, Workshop Coordinator\, with any questions at jmakar@g.harvard.edu. \nLamont Library\nRoom B30\n11 Quincy St.\nCambridge

SUMMARY:NYU Conference: New Contact Zones in Islamic Studies
DESCRIPTION:Methodologies\, Technologies\, Epistemologies: New Contact Zones in Islamic Studies \nThis conference seeks to tackle questions on how might different disciplines approach the same vital social question: How does a well-established academic field integrate new technological and methodological approaches? And how might these new approaches encourage greater engagement with diverse scholarly voices and the public at large? \nThese questions pertain to Islamic Studies by working across a number of assumed boundaries in the field\, relating to discipline\, methodology\, and faith background. Each panel is built around a theme and body of scholarship that problematizes such boundaries\, including interdisciplinary approaches to Sectarianism; the impact of digital humanities in the field; and scholarship on Islam that speaks equally to faith communities and the secular academy. An inaugural keynote panel brings together scholars working at the intersection of the academy and museum curating. Collectively\, the panels thus highlight cutting edge work by a range of scholars who already take these assumed boundaries as problem spaces for productive scholarly engagement. In doing so\, the conference aims to encourage a future vision for Islamic Studies that is both more internally inclusive and more publicly-engaged. \nThe conference format will consist of four panels with 2-3 panelists each. Each panelist will present their work for 20-25 minutes\, followed by a moderated round table discussion. The list of panels are: \n\nDigital Humanities in Islamic Studies\nSectarianism in Interdisciplinary Perspective\n“Faith work” in the Islamic Studies classroom\nIslamic Studies Perspectives in Museum Work

DESCRIPTION:On March 2 from 12-4pm US EST at the Program in Islamic Law’s office in Austin Hall and via Zoom\, our SHARIAsource Lab will lead a Hackathon: Arabic OCR Community Scribes event [registration link to come]. Join us for a chance to help write the next chapter in the history of the Arabic script where we bring our efforts together to finally develop a dependable program that will allow texts using Arabic script to be machine readable. This work in checking and reviewing documents will allow scholars to access\, search and explore historical and contemporary documents like never before. No knowledge of coding or programming is needed but knowledge of Arabic script is a must to train the machine learning program to recognize them. Lunch will be provided for those who RSVP. Drop by for however long you can to meet\, chat\, and transcribe!

SUMMARY:Call for Papers: Symposium on Legal Education in the Age of Generative Artificial Intelligence\, Royal Holloway University of London\, April 30\, 2025
DESCRIPTION:Call for Papers – Symposium on Legal Education in the Age of Generative Artificial Intelligence \nSchool of Law and Social Science\, Royal Holloway\, University of London \nDate: 30 April 2025 \nLocation: Royal Holloway\, University of London \nAbout the Symposium \nThe Symposium aims to explore the transformative impact of AI-powered tools on legal education. As legal academia and practice increasingly integrate AI-driven models such as ChatGPT\, DeepSeek\, NotebookLM\, Gemini\, Co-Pilot\, and Claude\, it is crucial to critically examine their implications for pedagogy\, legal reasoning\, and professional training. This interdisciplinary symposium will bring together scholars\, researchers\, educators\, legal practitioners\, and students from law\, computer science\, data science\, and related disciplines. The event will serve as a platform for knowledge exchange\, collaborative discussions\, and scholarly networking to advance research on AI’s role in shaping the future of legal education. \nThemes and Topics \nWe invite paper submissions that explore\, but are not limited to\, the following themes: \n• GenAI in Legal Education: How AI enhances legal research\, writing\, and analysis. \n• Pedagogical Impacts: The role of AI in fostering critical thinking and improving academic outcomes. \n• Evaluation and Benchmarking: Developing assessment frameworks for AI-generated legal responses\, including accuracy\, explainability\, and reliability. \n• Regulating AI in Legal Practice: The future role of AI tools in legal research\, case preparation\, and courtroom advocacy. \n• Cross-Disciplinary Collaboration: Integrating insights from law\, technology\, and education to develop responsible AI policies for legal academia. \nSubmission Guidelines \nWe welcome abstracts (250-300 words) for papers that contribute to the discourse on AI-driven legal education. Submissions should outline: \n• Research objectives and methodology \n• Key findings or expected contributions \n• Relevance to the symposium themes \nDeadline for Abstract Submissions: March 15\, 2025 \nNotification of Acceptance: April 15\, 2025 \nContact: Zubair.abbasi@rhul.ac.uk
