Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

As the use of mobile devices in classroom is expanding, this study intended to examine why undergraduate students extraneously use their cell phone during the class time. The research benefited from a qualitative approach and an ethnographic method to observe and interview students in order to find an answer to the research question: Why students use their cell phone extraneously in the class? The findings showed that habits, message buzzes, notifications, class arrangements, content specifications, and teaching method were among the reasons that triggered cell phone use in the classroom. However, there are strategies to impede this phenomenon such as expressing instructor’s expectations up front, giving more participation opportunities, and having circular seating arrangements.

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.
