Abstract
f Abstract. This presentation highlights results from two studies carried out over the last three years which included postsecondary students who self-identified as either being totally blind (n=29) or having low vision (n=139). The first study looked at the accessibility of eLearning in Canadian colleges and universities. The second examined the information and computer technology needs of postsecondary students with disabilities and how adequately these were being met both on and off-campus. CD-ROM tutorials used in class or labs and live online voice-based chat were identified as the least accessible forms of eLearning by students who were totally blind and those who had low vision, respectively. Training on the use of computer technologies provided at school was identified as inadequate by students who are totally blind. Other areas, such as the extent to which the technology is up-to-date and technical support adequacy were seen as only somewhat or moderately meeting needs of both groups.

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
