Her doctoral dissertation focused on computer-assisted instruction to visualize scientific argumentation. She worked in natural language processing, particularly in machine translation, at Carnegie Mellon University, but her research in the last few years has focused on language learning through reading and readability of texts, particularly for Arabic. She has taught a variety of topics in Computer Science at the graduate and undergraduate level. She has coordinated the Center for the Advancement of Teaching, Learning, and Scholarship (ATLAS), dedicated to faculty development, has been Assistant Vice President for Academic Research and is currently the Computer Science Program Lead.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><b data-olk-copy-source=\"MessageBody\">Talk title: Orthographic Dreams and Woes for Moroccan Arabic (Darija)<\/b><br \/>\n<strong>Abstract:<\/strong> While Modern Standard Arabic has a well-defined standard orthography that is codified in countless grammars and dictionaries, dialectal Arabic, is typically an oral language, the first learnt by children in the Arab world, first from their family, then through interaction with the society around them. When speakers begin writing their dialect, whether for interacting over social media, for advertising to reach a wide and sometimes low-literacy population, or more recently, for collecting resources to be computationally processed, they don\u2019t use rules for writing the oral message because there are none. Conventions develop but are also easily ignored since, the intent being to communicate, as long as the message is understandable the receiver can be flexible. Moroccan Arabic (Darija) is one of the more recently addressed dialects of Arabic and, even though there have been efforts at writing it over time, there is still substantial variation. In this talk, I will examine previous attempts at systematizing Darija writing, consider the challenges specific to Darija, and justify the orthographic choices our research group has been making (work in progress) for language learning.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"markdown prose w-full break-words dark:prose-invert light\">\n<div class=\"mt-1 flex gap-3 empty:hidden juice:-ml-3\">\n<div class=\"items-center justify-start rounded-xl p-1 flex\">\n<div class=\"flex items-center\">\n<div class=\"flex items-center pb-0.5 juice:pb-0\">\n<div class=\"[&amp;_svg]:h-full [&amp;_svg]:w-full icon-md h-4 w-4\">\n<hr \/>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h1 data-start=\"276\" data-end=\"311\"><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 18pt\"><strong data-start=\"278\" data-end=\"311\">Shared Tasks at AbjadNLP 2026<span style=\"font-family: helvetica;font-size: 12pt\"><span style=\"font-size: 18pt\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000\">**<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h1>\n<p data-start=\"313\" data-end=\"544\"><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif\">AbjadNLP 2026 will host <strong data-start=\"337\" data-end=\"359\">four shared tasks<\/strong> covering <strong data-start=\"369\" data-end=\"411\">Arabic and other Abjad languages<\/strong> (full details to follow).
