In 2019, the German Research Foundation (DFG) incentivized all research and higher education institutions to appoint ombudspersons who advise members of their institution in matters of good research practice or suspected research misconduct. These ombudspersons for good research practice, usually professors who act in this function on a voluntary basis, need institutional support to be prepared for and fulfill their diverse duties. The Ombuds-Modelle@BUA (2020) and OBUA – Ombudswesen@BUA (2021–2023) projects worked to advance the professionalization of ombudspersons in the Berlin research area by first investigating the current situation and then offering a meta-level of support in training, networking, and knowledge exchange. Furthermore, the OBUA project engaged in meta-research, investigating the status quo of local ombuds systems and demands for support. The project findings, discussed in this contribution, show that the professionalization of local ombuds systems has been evolving in past years, especially in the areas of training and networking. Infrastructural support measures, however, remain largely underdeveloped.

Abstract:
This article presents the courses on digital humanities (DH) offered by the Seminar für Semitistik und Arabistik at Freie Universität Berlin in three semesters in the period 2021–2023. The article provides an overview of the organizational background, the rationale for the selected teaching format, and the syllabus developed. In the discussion section, we present our observations based on the teaching activities and feedback from the course participants. The article aims to discuss methods of teaching DH at the university level as well as to document a teaching format that links together teaching, training and research.
