Abstract
Abstract The School Orchestra and String Teachers v2 (SOST v2) Facebook group is a self-directed online community of practice. In this study we describe the posting behaviour of SOST v2 members during the initial eighteen months of its launch on Facebook. Analysis of member-initiated posts (N=1,676) revealed the following: • Nearly 22 per cent of SOST v2 members contributed posts. • Repertoire (n=276), teaching advice (n=252) and links to articles and websites (n=231) were the most frequently posted topics. • SOST v2 members represent Canada, Hong Kong, Morocco, Turkey, the United Kingdom and the United States. School orchestra and string teachers have formed a viable community of practice on Facebook. Facebook groups provide a means by which music teachers may form a network for informal learning for music teachers and communicate easily with peers across the world. The challenges and potential of social media research are discussed.

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
