Abstract
This study documents one teacher's attempts to address a gender gap in language arts. Concerned about the interest and achievement of grade seven boys in a northern Canadian resource town, the researcher developed a gender-equitable novel study based on research recommendations. Using professional inquiry that drew on action research cycles and traditions of critical reflection, she taught the unit to gender separated groups of boys and girls. Although student choice of mulitmodal [sic] activities appeared to support learning for both genders, the key finding was related to teacher learning. The researcher developed awareness of classroom power dynamics and resolved to shift from an emphasis on controlling students to facilitating their learning, which corresponds to a systemic shift from sorting to learning as the primary function of schools. The study contributes an example of the power of professional inquiry to shift paradigmatic assumptions to support substantial and sustainable changes in practice. --P. ii.

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.
