Abstract
There is a richness of diverse cultures in present day society. Each culture has a specific history, heritage and traditions which should be maintained and passed on to future generations. In fact, many cultures are not present in mainstream education. Students need to be connected to their own experiences and to see themselves in the resources, and curricula of the classroom. However, there is a lack of African heritage in the curriculum in Nova Scotia public education. To address this need a course entitled English 12: African Heritage language arts was created. Interviews were conducted with educators who designed, developed and implemented this course. This study examines the process involved, the challenges and successful strategies employed by these educators. The author suggests that the implementation of English 12: African Heritage language arts has positive implications for all educators and students in their intercultural understanding and teaching and learning methodologies.

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
