Abstract
n recent years, use of the World Wide Web as a means of providing lifelong learning opportunities has increased. The main benefits of on-line continuing medical education (CME) include easy access, convenience, cost-eff ectiveness, reduced travel, self-paced and self-directed learning, and an interactive multimedia format.1-3 Several on-line CME studies4-6 have reported satisfaction with Internet learning and substantial acquisition of knowledge. An interesting aspect of the on-line CME literature is the diverse nature of the delivery formats that have been described. On-line CME has been delivered by real-time Internet teleconferencing, live and delayed audio and video CME Web broadcasts, and problem-based learning discussion system designs. In spring 2002, Memorial University of Newfoundland in St John’s led a consortium of Canadian university-based CME departments in the development of RuralMDcme, a CME website that provides accredited on-line CME courses by the College of Family Physicians of Canada. The purpose of this study was to evaluate physicians’ satisfaction with an on-line CME format that used the WebCT learning management system and facilitated interaction using computer-mediated discussion.

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
