The Promise of a Sociology Degree in Canadian Higher Education
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Des descriptions de programmes universitaires de cinquante‐quatre départements de sociologie anglophones ont été examinées afin de découvrir les thèmes publicitaires dirigés aux étudiants éventuels. En comparant les départements des universités comprenant des programmes de doctorat aux universités offrant principalement des programmes de baccalauréat, on a trouvé des variations dans leurs messages et leurs promesses aux étudiants. On a remarqué des formules habituelles dans les promesses de leur programme (l'étude des arts libéraux, le choix de carrière, ou l'amélioration des conditions sociales), l'acquisition des habilités (les pensées critiques ou déterminées par le marché) et les expériences d'apprentissage prévues (l'éducation élitiste, l'environnement d'apprentissage accessible, ou la stimulation intellectuelle). Après avoir composé un rapport portant sur ces modèles, nous prenons en considération leurs conséquences dans le contexte des questions plus générales de l'éducation universitaire.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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.
