Abstract
In this paper, we critically examine culturally responsive pedagogies in Canada and New Zealand. As each nation has a wide range of government policies and education systems, we focus our investigation on indigenization of teacher education programs at one institution within each cultural context. We are in search of best practices in terms of indigenizing the curriculum and effective ways to facilitate the gradual acculturation of novice teachers. Moreover, we seek to find out how these unique, exemplary programs are responding to calls to action (Truth and Reconciliation Commission in Canada and Ka Hikitia in New Zealand) in light of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples as a framework for reconciliation. The New Zealand Maori cultural context provides a mirror for us to reflect on Canada’s curriculum reform efforts to embed Indigenous ways of knowing into teacher education. For, it is teachers who ultimately can lead the way to advancing Indigenous perspectives, reversing decades of assimilation policies, evoking social change, and providing the bridge between government rhetoric and meaningful student learning.

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
