Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Technology appears to have various intended and unintended consequences for organizations, and this is partly due to different understandings people have about the technology. Over two decades of sensemaking research examines various social and cognitive processes through which people understand organizational phenomena and attach meaning to them. However, the role of the IT artifact in shaping the user understandings and bringing the consequences has been marginally addressed. This study proposes an ecological approach to technology sensemaking that focuses on the relation between user perception of technology and the technological features to which they adapt. Moreover, it advances research and practice by providing the novel conceptual and analytical tools to examine the role of the IT artifact in technological phenomenon. To empirically illustrate the proposed approach and suggested methodology, we report the initial findings of a pilot study on students using Moodle at a North American business school.

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.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
