Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Currently, Quebec's Ministry of Education is in the process of implementing broad curricular reforms that will fundamentally change the ways in which Quebec youth learn and come to develop academic, personal and social skills. As part of the broad reforms, the Ministry of Education has mandated that the delivery of sexual health education be reformed also. The former, more formal class allotment for sexual health education is being replaced by a more spontaneous and discussion based approach that spans across the curriculum and is the responsibility of the entire school community. Thus, there is a need to understand how both the educators and students are experiencing these changes. It is important to gain a better understanding of what these individuals believe is working and what they think needs improvement. In understanding better these realities, it will be possible to make suggestions for improvement or continued focus. Accordingly, this thesis is comprised of two main sections aimed at accomplishing these objectives. The first consists of an in depth literature review that looks closely at the context of sexual health education in both Quebec and Canada as well as the debate over best practices. The literature review also includes a document analysis that looks critically at the Ministry of Education document, Sex Education in the Context of Education Reform, intended to guide the reformation process. The second section of this thesis is a research article, which presents a phenomenological look at the experiences of educators and students as they adjust to sexual health curricular reforms at an independent secondary school in Quebec.

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.
