TEACHING ANGLO-AMERICAN CULTURE AT THE ENGLISH DEPARTMENT: THE PAST, THE PRESENT AND THE FUTURE
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Following the example of the European and American universities in the last three decades, the English Department of the Faculty of Philosophy in Niš has introduced seven courses dealing with the particulars of foreign cultures - British, American, Canadian, Australian, Irish, Scottish and African American studies - all evolving over the years to encompass both the historical and the contemporary socio-political contexts necessary for educating language and literature students - future teachers - and provide them with the background knowledge indispensable for teaching language and literature in context. At the English Department, the mandatory introductory courses in cultural studies are complemented by electives that provide a deeper understanding of both the theoretical concepts and theories pertaining to cultural studies, and the specifics of individual Anglo-American nations and their cultures.

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.
