Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

All learners benefit when schools foster an environment for teachers to enhance their teaching skills. Pre-service education programs are often where this important process begins. Using a Global Concept Mapping method, pre-service teachers across Canada were interviewed about the personal and professional experiences that contributed to their instructional practices within inclusive classrooms. Participants sorted 93 unique statements into categories. They were asked to rate on a scale of 1 (not at all important) to 6 (very important) how important each experience would be to their instructional practices. Mentoring relationship statements were rated significantly more important than the others. Practicum experiences and those within the course part of the education program were rated as equally important and more important than professional development. Their perceived least important experiences were those related to past jobs/positions and personal experiences with people identified with diverse learning needs. Understanding the specific experiences that influence pre-service teachers’ perspectives of their inclusive instructional practices will help teacher education programs connect to what motivates teachers’ early experiences in becoming inclusive educators.

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.
