Abstract
The use of multiliteracies pedagogy is one approach that we consider well-suited toCanadian Indigenous contexts where language teaching must he responsive to localrealities and driven by local needs. Multiliteracies pedagogy includes a multiplicity ofdiscourses, forms of text (oral, written, digital), language registers, and languages, reflecting the diverse societies in which learners live. Curriculum is jointly negotiatedby teachers and learners. We illustrate the potential of this pedagogical approach withexamples from an Indigenous community in Quebec. The Innu community of OlamenShipu furnishes an example of Indigenous knowledge underpinning and informinggrassroots-built multiliteracies pedagogy. Although multiliteracies pedagogy was developed and theorized outside the Indigenous context, we show it to be completely compatible with and, in many respects, identical to traditional Indigenous pedagogies.

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
