Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Sociology of Education 2e offers a well-rounded introduction to the sociological understanding of education, analysing key debates and issues with reference to critical research and theories of education. The book includes a sociological analysis of education in Canada, theories of education, historical and organizational dimensions of Canadian education, the politics of teaching, as well as educational opportunity and social reproduction. Throughout the book formal education is presented as a contested and contradictory endeavour that contributes to the reproduction of social inequality at the same time it offers possibilities for social justice and change.

Teacher imitation

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.
