Abstract
Students’ non-conforming and “difficult” behaviours are often conceptualized through a pathologizing lens of “disability” (as informed by developmental psychology), medicalizing and, thus, legitimizing “mis”behaviour in a move that upholds the normal order of things. Using Sharon Todd’s theorizing (influenced by Levinas) on ethical relationships with the Other, alongside a snippet of teacher interview data from a research project, Janzen theorizes what it might mean for this ethical relationship between teachers and “mis”behaving students to be framed by the notion of mystery, arguing that a relationship with the Other enacted through a stance of mystery is necessary in maintaining the alterity (difference) of the Other, and is premised on openness and listening. Thus, rather than the dehumanizing and objectifying efforts of seeking to know the child through assessments and diagnoses, ethical relationships between teachers and students must be premised on an acknowledgment and curiosity of differences.

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
