University/School Professional Development Partnerships: A Sharing of Models and Evaluation Issues, Part 2
Bibliographic record
Abstract
For effective technology integration to occur in school contexts, professional development is an ongoing concern. Recently, university and K-12 school partnerships have joined forces in order to maximize the potential for these tools and approaches to impact k-12 student achievement. One productive strategy that has grown out of these partnerships are fieldbased professional development models. While it is acknowledged that professional development is necessary and that field based models can collaboratively prepare a continuum of teachers from preservice to inservice, evaluating the effectiveness of these models is challenging. This symp osium will describe and provide examples of professional development models aimed at preparing inservice teachers to become technology mentors for preservice teacher candidates, evaluation strategies used and lessons learned. Challenges to evaluation beyond local contexts will be discussed.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
