Lehrkonzept Data & Digital Literacy – Queere Zugänge zur Korpus- und Diskurslinguistik
No full textDas Lehrkonzept QuZuKoDiLi basiert auf der Lehrveranstaltung „Queere Zugänge zur Korpus- und Diskurslinguistik“ (QuZuKoDiLi), die im Wintersemester 2024/25 und im Sommersemester 2025 am Institut für Germanistik an der Universität Hamburg durchgeführt wurde. Die Lehrveranstaltung gliederte sich in ein Seminar und eine Übung mit insgesamt vier Semesterwochenstunden und einer Zielgruppe von fortgeschrittenen Bachelor- sowie Master-Studierenden. Ziel der Lehrveranstaltung war es, Studierende an das Forschungsfeld der Queerlinguistik mit Methoden der Korpus- und Diskurslinguistik heranzuführen und die inhaltlichen Aspekte mit einer Vermittlung von Data Literacy und Digital Literacy zu verbinden. Das Lehrkonzept schlüsselt die Bedeutung von Data und Digital Literacy für die Hochschullehre auf, präsentiert einen schematischen Modulplan mit Bausteinen, die auch in anderen Sprach- oder Geisteswissenschaften einsetzbar sind, sowie einen beispielhaften Seminarplan der Lehrveranstaltung QuZuKoDiLi. Zudem enthält es Informationen zur didaktischen Ausgestaltung und Rückmeldungen von Studierenden.
Das Lehrveranstaltungsschema präsentiert eine Übersicht der einzelnen Bausteine des Seminars und der Übung und ihre Verzahnung. Darüber hinaus bietet es exemplarische Seminarpläne für die Ausgestaltung der Bausteine.
Das Handout Lernziele fasst am Beispiel der von QuZuKoDiLi die Ziele der Lehrveranstaltung für Studierende zusammen. Es enthält Informationen zu Data und Digital Literacy, Digital Humanities (inkl. ihrer Verankerung an der UHH), Queerlinguistik sowie methodischen Zugängen und Werkzeugen.
Der Überblick über Ressourcen bietet eine Übersicht über verschiedene digitale Werkzeuge, Korpora und Ressourcen, die zur Bearbeitung korpus- und diskurslinguistischer Fragestellungen eingesetzt werden können.
Das Handout AntConc und das Handout Sketch Engine führen anhand von Daten aus dem Queerlinguistischen Korpus (Sörries-Vorberger 2024 und 2025) an die beiden korpuslinguistischen Tools AntConc und Sketch Engine heran
Audition Certificates Platform
No full textAudition certificates (سماع, طبقة السماع or إجازة) are a salient feature of Arabic manuscript cultures. They are notes written on a book to document the authorised transmission of the book’s text from teacher(s) to student(s). In concrete terms, the text was read out aloud (by the teacher or one of the students) and at the end of the reading session one of the members of this reading group added the audition certificate to the book. By virtue of their participation all students now had the right to act as teacher in future reading sessions.
Audition certificates are brimming with data and can include: the name of the teacher(s), student(s) (including highlighting those coming late or leaving early), the reader, the writer of the certificate, the book’s owner; in addition to the date of the reading, the place of the reading and many other surprises (such as a writer recording the birth of his son during the reading session in the room next door). These certificates contain a wealth of historical data, particularly on individuals who are not found in many other sources. They are thus a source of outstanding importance for fields such as social history, history of ideas, economic history, urban history, historical topography, and biographical studies. It goes without saying that, especially in a comparative perspective with other world regions, such as Latin Europe, this copious material represents a considerable resource for widening our understanding of Middle Eastern societies.
ACP is the first major open-access project aimed at unlocking the potential of this data. We have started to go through the holdings of selected libraries (Staatsbibliothek Berlin, Forschungsbibliothek Gotha, Bibliothèque nationale de France, Syrian National Library, Aşir Efendi Library Istanbul), but we cannot claim to have identified all audition certificates in the manuscript books on their shelves. We will continue to go through further collections to enlarge this first large-scale and fully searchable corpus of audition certificates.

Translation of the tablet in the envelope
Pilah-Aššur seized us against Elamma and Pilah-Aššur (said) to Elamma as follows:
“With respect to your tin that you gave me, I will do you a favor, I will supply you in the City (of Aššur) silver (at a rate of 1 shekel of silver) per 8 shekels (of tin).”
Pilah-Aššur (answered) as follows: “And when I go to the City (of Aššur) will you then give me 15 minas of silver for my free disposal?”
Elamma (replied) thus: “I will give (it) to you.”
In the presence of Laqēp, Šu-Bēlum and Šarrum-Adad were my fellow (witnesses).
For these proceedings, the (Assyrian authorities) of Kaneš appointed me (as arbitrator) and I gave (this) tablet with my testimony before the dagger (of Aššur) in the Gate of the God.

The Influence of Avatar Visual Fidelity on Embodiment and User Experience in Virtual Reality
No full textConsumer grade VR now allows embodying full-body avatars to act within the virtual world.
Realism has been shown to be an important factor for the plausibility and self attribution of an
avatar. However, the role of self-representation, diverting from the actual user’s appearance, is
not clear yet.
In this work, we compare a generic, a self-configured, and a photo-generated full-body avatar
with similar realism level in terms of embodiment and user experience. We conducted a study with
thirty participants, that revealed higher ratings of attractiveness, valence, and threat reaction (as
an indirect measure for embodiment) in the self-configured condition, compared to the photo-
generated avatar. However, direct measures for embodiment remained inconclusive. These results
motivate further research in the field of self-configured avatars, considering the feedback about
avatar diversity that is still worthy of improvement
GECCO3 Ocean Synthesis (nativ grid 41)
No full textThe GECCO3 ocean synthesis is the German contribution of the Estimating the Circulation and Climate of the Ocean project (ECCO, see references) and is the new version of the GECCO2 synthesis already available at ICDC. The synthesis also uses the adjoint method to adjust the initial temperature and salinity in 1948 together with the air temperature, humidity, precipitation, shortwave radiation, and zonal and meridional wind every 10 days to bring the model into consistency with the data, which derive from the EN4.2.1 data base AVISO along track SLA, DTU10 mean sea surface minus GOCO5s geoid to yield the mean dynamic topography, HadISST SST, and the WOA18 climatology. The global model is based on the MITgcm model, has 40 levels, and uses the horizontal and vertical grid of the ocean component of MPI-ESM in the MR/HR configuration, which is with nominally 0.4° resolution eddy-permitting. The bathymetry is also adopted from this configuration. The background atmospheric state is taken from the 6 hourly NCEP/NCAR Reanalysis 1.
GECCO3 and GECCO3S6m
The GECCO3 synthesis covers the period 1948-2018 and, unlike GECCO2, is optimized over only one assimilation window. The state after 41 iterations is available. There are two versions of the synthesis, which differ in the time constant of the relaxation of the surface salinity. For the present version 41 a time constant of 30 days was used. Globally and averaged over all data types, there is a slight advantage for the stronger relaxation. However, an evaluation with ESA-CCI surface salinity data for the years 2011-2018 showed a somewhat more realistic variability with less relaxation. In other variables that were examined, mainly differences between the two products on multi-decade time scales were found. The difference between the products gives an impression of the robustness of the estimate, but it must be taken into account that only one aspect was changed. Overall, the GECCO3S6m version (DOI:10.25592/uhhfdm.14187) can be recommended.

Data quality
Variational methods fit the trajectory best during the middle section of the assimilation period. During the first few years spin-up effects are noticeable such that the variability during this period should be considered with care. Changes in the densities and type of assimilated data leave signatures in the product, in particular noticeable in year 1992 and at the beginning of the 2000s during the advent of altimeter and Argo data.
