Abstract
Abstract Death holds a significant place in our social and cultural worlds despite it not being a direct or first-hand experience for many of us. Informal education about death occurs regularly throughout our daily lives in the context of “teachable moments, the unplanned life events from which important lessons can be drawn” (Kastenbaum, 2007, p. 483). Building upon a meaningful clinical encounter with a woman who was dying, this literature review explores the need to situate death as a topic and as a curriculum within the broad context of education and across the lifespan. By exploring some of the relevant discourses on death relating to education, I identify ways in which we receive death education informally through media, religion, culture, and the arts, presenting an argument for more formalized death education within all systems and levels of education.

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.
