Abstract

The Internet is deemed to be an essential tool for education,entertainment and daily life.Vancouver and Shanghai are both coastal cities with ambiguous relations to the centre.Each has key universities involved in teacher training with historic commitments to adult education.Both are at the forefront of Internet developments and university leaders praise the Internet and preach knowledge economy gospel.But what do Vancouver and Shanghai university students know about the Internet? Who knows more? This question was investigated by administering the Internet Quiz to 516 university students in Shanghai and 566 in Greater Vancouver.Students in Greater Vancouver completed the English and Shanghai students the Chinese version of the Internet Quiz.Vancouver students knew 20% more about the Internet than those in Shanghai and,as well,were using it for different purposes.The authors also make suggestions for change,explore aspects of Chinese student pragmatism.

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.
