Q & A with Steven Camicia on “Increasing Inclusion and Recognition in Education for Democracy”
Bibliographic record
Abstract
I serve as Professor of foundations and social studies education at Utah State University in the School of Teacher Education and Leadership.My ultimate goal is to help social studies educators identify perspectives in curriculum and instruction in order to build democratic communities in their classrooms and beyond.I am interested in understanding the characteristics of critical democratic education and ways to increase it in educational spaces for social justice.This involves a focus upon classroom discussion and deliberation.I often ask what perspectives, individuals, groups, and issues are excluded from considerations during such discussions.My own professional development efforts have been focused on understanding different perspectives on social issues.Outside of professional pursuits, I enjoy raising chickens, gardening, and cooking with my partner, Darrin, in Salt Lake City, Utah.I am a former elementary school teacher.For more information about me and my work, please visit stevencamicia.org.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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.
