Empowerment and a changing curriculum: keynote address NADIE conference, July 1, 1994
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This keynote address was presented by Wayne Fairhead for the 1994 National Conference of NADIE, the National Association for Drama in Education (now Drama Australia) held in Fremantle, Western Australia. It explores the concepts of empowerment in drama and theatre education and contextualises Australian curriculum developments in 1994, through sharing experiences from the development of Dramatic Arts Standards in Ontario, Canada. This paper is published in 2021 for its ongoing relevance to the ongoing development of the Australian Curriculum: The Arts (ACARA) and contemporary questions about the potential for empowerment through education. The introduction and footnotes contextualises the original keynote and contemporary issues.

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.
