Pioneers and Progressive Pedagogues: Carrying the University to the People of Saskatchewan, 1905-1928
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This paper focuses on the University of Saskatchewan's project of creating a public university committed to mediating relevant knowledge to the farmers' economic and lifeworld situations. The conceptual framework uses Habermas's system/lifeworld dichotomy and his notion of the public sphere as an interpretive lens. Lessons for the present are drawn from this case study. Résumé Cet article porte sur un projet de l'université de la Saskatchewan qui visait la création d'une université publique dont le but était de transmettre les connaissances propres à la situation économique et au « monde vécu »des agriculteurs. Le cadre théorique utilise la dichotomie qu'opère Habermas entre les notions de système et de « monde vécu », ainsi que sa notion de sphère publique envisagée comme outil d'interprétation. Des leçons applicables au présent sont tirées de cette étude de cas.

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.
