This week’s issue was curated by Colleen Nugent McLean, DHNow Project Manager and Augustine Farinola, DHNow Guest Editor. This week, our Editors’ Choice posts both consider aspects of AI, one from a research perspective and the other pedagogical. Our first Editors’ Choice selection tackles the difficulties generative AI has created for academic integrity and assessment design. This selection provides a toolkit for educators who are striving to make purposeful decisions about appropriate AI use in the classroom. Our second Editors’ Choice is situated in the sub-field of Syriac Digital Humanities and highlights ways that generative AI can assist in manuscript research. The author provides case studies of using an AI to complete fragments and to create a visual reconstruction, demonstrating how AI can be used in historical research. Our news materials include event announcements, job announcements, and other interesting and useful reports and resources that cover topics like best practices for Wikipedia edit-a-thons, historicizing digital humanities, and game design.
