Faculty reward and promotion in distributed learning environments-pedagogy in implementation
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This paper focuses on the scholarship of teaching and the need to implement change in the evaluation practices of post-secondary institutions. The scholarship of teaching is closely linked to the development of instructional technology innovations. The principles underlying teaching excellence are inherent in the effective use of instructional technology innovations. Increasing the value placed upon teaching and learning is a primary concern of a research project called "Peer Review in Instructional Technology Initiatives" (PRITI). PRITI (2000-2002) is a collaborative initiative to develop a peer review model of evaluation, which will be used to assess instructional technological innovations for faculty reward and promotion. One of the deliverables is a set of evaluative criteria and templates to assist institutional academic program review bodies in the evaluation of existing and proposed offerings in distance and distributed learning environments.

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.
