Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

For the past 4 years, the author has been conducting critical ethnographic fieldwork in a Canadian multilingual high school and thinking about the ways she might write up her findings. In an attempt to represent the experiences of those who participated in her study in a way that does not lead to the reproduction of the policies and practices of colonialism and racism she means to challenge, the author has experimented with the genre of playwriting. The piece contains an edited version of the author’s Hong Kong, Canada, a fictional but ethnographically informed play about some of the linguistic and social dilemmas facing immigrant youth and their Canadian-born classmates. A short explanation of why and how the script came to be written follows the play. A brief discussion of audience responses to the play concludes the article.

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.

Not 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.
