From the Classroom to the Community: Cultivating Social Responsibility in Medical Education
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This paper explores the experiences of two first year medical students through the Local Global Health Elective, a year-long clinical placement program developed through the Dalhousie Global Health Office. The article begins with a narrative exploration of the clinical experiences of the authors during their elective placements in two underserved local Halifax communities. The paper then explores the shifting paradigm in medical education around how learning objectives related to the social determinants of health are met in undergraduate medical education. The article concludes with a discussion about going beyond teaching the social determinants of health in a controlled classroom setting. The authors argue that in order for medical students to translate knowledge about the social determinants of health into behavior and action that reflects the unique needs of each patient, a participatory solution is needed.

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.
