Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This case study explored the personal and professional lives of 10 Cégep physical and health education (PHE) teachers. The participants, between 32-59 years, were PHE educators at Cégeps within a large Canadian city and its surrounding areas. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with the PHE teachers about their experiences instructing at the Cégep level. Rich discussions were generated to explore the roles and responsibilities of the participants within the Cégepat which they taught. Data analyses were conducted on the verbatim transcriptions of the interviews. Four themes emerged from the data. The first theme, pathways to teaching, reflected the discussions about teacher experiences that led the educators to instruct at the Cégep level. The second theme, Cégep PHE teacher career, demonstrated the structure and professional life of the PHE teachers. The third theme, a focus on education outcomes, highlighted participants' recollections of individualized instruction and resultant student success. The fourth theme, insider's perspective, described the participants' personal viewpoints about the teaching position which allowed for the identification of benefits and challenges of the job. Data triangulation, member checking, peer review, audit trail, and researcher reflexivity were used to establish trustworthiness. The Cégep PHE teachers spoke of their professional experiences which may influence the teaching of physical activity and health behaviours of at-risk college-aged students. Recommendations are made for future studies to delve into the world of Cégep to spark more research about PHE delivery and its effect on college-aged populations.

Not 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.
