Engaging Pre-Service Teachers in the Drama in Teacher Leadership
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This paper presents the findings of a qualitative research study that examined the effects of a transdisciplinary ethnotheatre workshop designed to support the professional development of school leaders as they navigate the complexities of teacher leadership. The site of inquiry was a pre-service teacher leadership workshop held in a graduate school class where participants analyzed, witnessed, and enacted ethnodramas, problematizing tensions in teacher leadership. Using a constant comparative approach, the participant journals were read and re-read, coded, and then categorized thematically with particular focus on negative case analysis. The authors present excerpts from the ethnodrama scripts used in the workshop alongside the research findings, which suggest that, while some participants perceived the injustice of a given situation presented in the ethnodrama, and could articulate how the process of ethnotheatre created avenues for learning about the lived reality of teacher leaders, others indicated either a lack of awareness or a tacit acceptance of the bullying and discriminatory behaviors embedded within the scripts.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
