Abstract
Remember Y2K? Back in those days, important changes took place in the way universities in Quebec were to conceive teacher education: “professional competencies” were supposed to become the backbone of our programs (see Lajoie & Pallascio, 2001). One key idea we have drawn from this requirement is the concept of “knowing how to act in the moment.” How could student-teachers be prepared to know how to deal with the unexpected? And not only to “know how”, but indeed develop know-how, competencies to actually act in the moment and make the best – in terms of the subject matter – of surprising, unforeseen, startling events that sparkle in the everyday of teaching and learning? Even more: how can this “know how”be made part of “formal,” intra muros, teacher education, and not only fall on the charge of practicum? Our answer: improvisation!

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 it
