Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The final exam performances of seven sections of introductory calculus were compared with student ratings of the instructors. The ratings were made by a mail survey; half of the students were contacted during the last week of classes and the other half during the first week of the subsequent term. The ratings made at the two different times were not reliably different. Although both sets of ratings correlated positively with final exam performance, the ratings made during the first week of the subsequent quarter showed the stronger relationship. Additional analyses indicated that this positive relationship was not dependent on the student's individual grades.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

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.
