Abstract
With the arrival of a technologically proficient generation of learners (often described with the moniker "digital natives") into Canadian medical schools and residency programs, there is an increasing trend toward harnessing technology to enhance education and increase teaching efficiency. We present an instructional method that allows medical educators to "reverse" the traditional classroom paradigm. Imagine that prior to an academic half-day session, learners watch an e-lecture on their own time; then during class, they do "homework" with tailored consultations from a content expert. The reverse classroom uses simple, readily accessible technology to allow faculty members to engage learners in high-order learning such as information analysis and synthesis. With this instructional method, the inefficient, repetitious delivery of recurring core lectures is no longer required. The reverse classroom is an effective instructional method. Using this technique, learners engage in high-order learning and interaction with teachers, and teachers are able to optimally share their expertise.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
