Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This research study was designed to investigate teacher and student perspectives on using technology in outdoor education (OE) classes. I wanted to research this topic because I am passionate about physical and outdoor education and was curious to see how technology can be used in OE without taking away from the students’ relationship with their natural surroundings. I think technology can be very beneficial in any subject if used properly and not overused. I created a survey with Google Forms and sent it to education students, education professors, and attendees at the YYC Outdoor Education Networking Day at Connect Charter School on February 10th 2014. Many people who completed the survey said that technology, such as GPS units and computers, can be useful to help students research the outdoors and create projects. I also found that many people believe technology can be a distraction in OE. Overall there are many benefits and drawbacks to using technology in outdoor education.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
