Abstract In the spring of 2015, the city of Ottawa hosted both the closing ceremonies of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) into Canada’s Indian Residential Schools and the 5th Triennial International Association for the Advancement of Curriculum Studies (IAACS) conference. In this paper, we reflect on the coincidence of these two events, by drawing on our presentations at IAACS to provide a series of reflections on the implications of the TRC’s Final Report for us as settler educators and researchers. Living and working in Canada’s colonial capital, what are our responsibilities to take up truth and reconciliation? How should we proceed? Addressing these curricular questions, we present four narrative snapshots that seek to understand the Ontario secondary school civics curriculum, teacher education, and the curricular and pedagogical (re)organization of postsecondary institutions in light of the educational recommendations of the TRC. We discuss the particular complexities of taking up truth and reconciliation in these different contexts, and provide examples of possible ways forward. Drawing particularly on the ground-breaking work of Cynthia Chambers, we attempt to situate these examples of our work as curriculum scholars within the landscape of Ottawa, looking first to the colonial institutions we have built upon the unceded ancestral land, then to the pre-existing relational landscape that makes all of this possible. Living and working within these topographies, we consider how we as settler scholars and educators can ethically engage with local Indigenous communities, and take part in the ongoing work of truth and reconciliation. Résumé Au printemps 2015, alors même que les cérémonies de clôture de la Commission de vérité et de réconciliation du Canada (CVR) sur le système des pensionnats indiens se déroulaient dans la ville d’Ottawa, nous étions les hôtes de la 5e conférence triennale de l’Association internationale pour la promotion des études du curriculum (IAACS). Cet article présente notre analyse des coïncidences et concomitances entre ces deux événements. En tant qu’éducateurs et chercheurs non-autochtones, nous partons de nos présentations à IAACS, en vue d’analyser les impacts du Rapport final de la CVR sur notre travail. Notre situation, dans la capitale coloniale du Canada, influence-t-elle nos responsabilités envers le processus de vérité et de réconciliation ? Comment devrions-nous procéder ? Nous présentons ici quelques pistes de réponses à ces questions curriculaires, à travers quatre récits inspirés de notre travail sur le curriculum citoyen au secondaire en Ontario, la formation à l’enseignement, et la réorganisation pédagogique et curriculaire des institutions d’enseignement post-secondaires au regard des recommandations de la CVR. Nous discutons des complexités propres à chacun de ces contextes, et proposons des exemples des étapes à venir. Inspirés du travail exceptionnel de Cynthia Chambers, nous tentons d'ancrer nos récits dans le paysage d’Ottawa, nous arrêtant d’abord aux institutions coloniales construites sur le territoire ancestral non-cédé, ensuite aux paysages relationnels pré-existants qui influencent notre travail. Puisque nous vivons et nous travaillons dans ces topographies, nous considérant comment, en tant que chercheurs et éducateurs non-autochtones, nous pouvons développer des relations éthiques avec les communautés autochtones environnantes, et prendre ainsi part au processus de vérité et de réconciliation en cours. Resumen En la primavera de 2015, a pesar de que de la Comisión las ceremonias de clausura de la Verdad y la Reconciliación de Canadá (CVR) sobre el sistema de escuelas residenciales se llevaron a cabo en Ottawa, éramos los anfitriones de la quinta Conferencia Trienal de la Asociación Internacional por el Avance de los Estudios Curriculares (IAACS). En este artículo se presenta el análisis de las concomitancias y coincidencias entre estos dos eventos. Como educadores e investigadores no aborígenes, comenzamos desde nuestras presentaciones en IAACS, con el fin de analizar los impactos del Informe Final de la CVR sobre nuestro trabajo. Tratamos de entender como nuestra situación en la capital colonial de Canadá, influye en nuestras responsabilidades con el proceso de la verdad y la reconciliación? ¿Cómo debemos proceder? Presentamos aquí algunas respuestas a estas cuestiones curriculares a través de cuatro historias inspiran nuestro trabajo en el ciudadano al currículo secundaria en Ontario, la formación en educación, y la reorganización educativa y curricular de las instituciones de educación postsecundaria en vista de las recomendaciones de la CVR. Se discuten las complejidades únicas de cada uno de estos contextos, y se ofrece ejemplos de los pasos futuros. Desde el excepcional trabajo de Cynthia Chambers, tratamos de incluir nuestras historias en el paisaje de Ottawa, primera parada en las instituciones coloniales construidas el territorio ancestral no cedió, siguiente en las relaciones preexistentes paisajes influir en nuestro trabajo. Dado que vivimos y trabajamos en estas topografías, teniendo en cuenta cómo, como investigadores y educadores no aborígenes, podemos desarrollar relaciones éticas con las comunidades indígenas de los alrededores, como parte integrante del proceso de verdad y reconciliación en curso.

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.
