Abstract
NON-WESTERN EDUCATIONAL TRADITIONS: INDIGENOUS APPROACHES TO EDUCATIONAL THOUGHT AND PRACTICE (3rd ed.). Timothy Reagan. Mahwah, NJ: Erlbaum, 2005. Pp. xiii + 308. $36.00 paper.Within the field of applied linguistics, globalization expresses itself most clearly in two phenomena: (a) the increase of cultural and linguistic diversity in urban centers around the world and (b) the rapid spread of English as a global language fueled by the perception of many policy-makers, educators, and parents that English proficiency is a prerequisite for social and economic advancement. Both of these phenomena have increased the level of cross-cultural contact within the educational system. Teachers in Western contexts are now teaching students who come from many different cultural and educational traditions. Similarly, as countries around the world compete to promote English proficiency, teachers and students in these countries are increasingly coming into contact with the cultural traditions and educational assumptions embodied in English language curricula and personified in teachers who come from English-speaking countries.

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.
