How to Develop True Care: Three Interviews with Nel Noddings
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In these three interviews conducted in 2011, 2012 and 2016 and then translated for Japanese language publications, Nel Noddings discusses care ethics, today’s educational practices vis-à-vis her recent books, as well as how she and her husband Jim raised their ten children. The first two interviews appeared in Seikyo Shimbun, the daily newspaper for Soka Gakkai, a Buddhist lay organization based on the practice and study of Nichiren (1222-1282). The third interview appeared in Ushio, a monthly magazine aimed at a general audience. Providing a backdrop for the interviews is common ground found in the work of education philosophers John Dewey (1859-1952) and Tsunesaburo Makiguchi (1871-1944). In 1930, Makiguchi founded Soka Gakkai’s forerunner, Soka Kyoiku Gakkai, comprised of teachers and educators actively promoting education reform in Japan as advocated in Makiguchi’s The System of Value-Creating Pedagogy (1930).

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
