Ethical relationships between instructor, learner and institution
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Ethical relationships arise from the interaction of the student, instructor and institution. Teaching is viewed here as leadership based upon moral and ethical principles, as opposed to technical ones. Student participation in a course involves recognizing and resolving various ethical issues, some of which focus on the instructor’s actions. The institution, too, as it supports students and instructors, is ethically involved. Macfarlane’s treatment of the ethical basis of teaching and Starratt’s three key virtues of Responsibility, Authenticity, and Presence are advanced to facilitate a discussion of ethical relationships. I draw also on my own experience of teaching in distance modes to raise some concerns and suggest that ethical dilemmas may be analyzed as issues of moral character rather than prescriptive rules and regulations.

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.
