Abstract
Abstract This study delves into immersion competencies within secondary education, specifically focusing on transformative professional development in Home Economics pedagogical integration. Specifically, this paper investigates how six teacher participants, in the Gaeltacht education context in Ireland, acquired the necessary competencies for meaningful language integration, as outlined by the IPACK framework. In addition, the role of a bespoke professional development programme in fostering such competencies was examined. Through qualitative action research design, data collection tools such as classroom observations, stimulated recall interviews, questionnaires, and reflective diaries were employed. Findings demonstrated evident evolvement of participants’ pedagogical approach of Form-Focused Instruction and contributed to understanding the intricacies of immersion competencies at secondary level, highlighting their interdependence as a prerequisite for effective pedagogical integration. Implications suggest the need for targeted professional development initiatives to empower teachers with the competencies necessary for effective integration of content and language pedagogies.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
