Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This paper. presented in first person narrative, looks at the tensions that exist when professional identity in higher education is constructed with and against teaching identity. Using a post-structuralist perspective and an auto-ethnographic approach, the author explores her own experience of seeking to successfully secure tenure. An analysis of the author's written self-representations destined for hiring and evaluation committees is followed by an analysis of spontaneous writing that emerged through the research process. A juxtaposition of the analyses reveals the tensions that exist when academic work follows a previous career. The paper provides insight into the formation of professional identity of one new academic appointee and draws attention to the need to better understand professional identity in higher education.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

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.
