Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The literature on educational administration contains many recommendations regarding changed approaches to the organization of teachers' work in schools. Many of these changes rest on the notion that teachers are most effective and satisfied when treated as reasonable, capable, and autonomous persons who can work collaboratively, yet with personal autonomy. While these principles should be transferable to the way in which the work of students is organized, there seems little interest in doing so. Examination of three specific areas - participation in decision-making, learning for improved practice, and evaluation - shows clearly that current arguments about what is good for teachers are not being extended to what might be good for students. Some suggestions for change are proposed.

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.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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.
