Introduction: Transforming Academe and Veterinary Education
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This issue of JVME examines a variety of viewpoints, nexus points, and embarkation points of teaching and learning in a networked world. In these pages we soar up to gain a hawk’s-eye view of this new phenomenon and swoop down to put segments and aspects of distance learning under a microscope. The most interesting result of the renewed interest in distance learning, however, is that distance appears to be disappearing. Given its escalating popularity, as educators we ask ourselves how we can retain control over this ‘‘beast.’’ How authentic are relationships largely mediated by technology? Is a virtual team less of a team because the members have never shared the same physical space? Does technology dehumanize us? Or is it up to us to be the masters of technology rather than its slaves?

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.
