Interviewing Social Work Leaders: Points of View as a Course Assignment
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In this editorial, I discuss the development of an Interviewing Social Work Leaders assignment for an MSW elective course on social work leadership. The assignment asked each student to use the established six-question interview guide for the Points of View submission (link to the introduction to the POV series: https://doi.org/10.1080/23303131.2020.1789799) and interview a social work leader in their professional circle. I reflect on the experience of integrating an informal peer-review process for students to offer feedback on each other’s draft piece prior to submission for assessment. I conclude by encouraging other instructors to consider developing course assignments toward the Point of View submission to help build the knowledge base concerning the What and How of social work leadership in contemporary times.

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.
