Abstract
Change in educational systems is a highly complex yet little understood phenomenon. Contemporary attempts to conceptualise educational change have generally failed to take account of the culture within which educational institutions are embedded, and within which their members act. This chapter focuses on data gathered during a research project which explored the management of change in Canadian teacher education. There was a plethora of apparent change in Canadian teacher education during the 1970s. The conceptual scheme fits well into the typology suggested by the literature on change in higher education, with barriers existing at the systemic, organisational and individual levels. It could be argued that Canadian teacher education is in its present state because the move to the university was a major innovation; that it takes time to institutionalise; and that, given experience, the situation will right itself.

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.
