Abstract
This research project attempted to investigate the impact of applying philosophical inquiry method of teaching onclassroom engagement and reasoning skills of low achievers. Low achievers are those who have the potential tosucceed but lagged behind because of several factors that demotivate them to perform at their highest ability. In thisstudy, low achievers were students who failed or obtained the lowest grades in previous standardized schoolexamination. They were 22 students aged 12-13 years old from a school in Gombak district, Malaysia. The studentswere observed and video recorded while participating in discussing the questions they had formulated in response tothe given stimulus materials. Many assumed and projected that these students would not succeed in school and life;and would not have the intelligence to engage in discussion that employed higher order thinking. However, thefindings revealed that when low achievers were given opportunities to voice out their opinions in dialogic pedagogy,they demonstrated the ability to be focused and engaged in classroom discussion. Furthermore, this pedagogy hasproven effective in stimulating higher order thinking or reasoning skills among low achievers. Specifically, this studyfound indicators of behavioral, emotional and agentic engagement among low achievers; and demonstrated that lowachievers were capable of asking higher order thinking questions, clarifying meanings, giving examples, makingconclusion and inductive reasoning, distinguishing and classifying ideas.

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
