Abstract
This chapter describes and theorizes Ethno pedagogical principles and processes in action, addressing the following questions: What are the underpinning values and beliefs that shape learning and teaching at Ethno World? and 2) How are these understood and enacted through pedagogical principles and practices? We frame our discussion with the idea of 'signature pedagogies', concerned with the implicit values and the explicit structures and practices that characterize domain-specific pedagogies. Discussing the specific pedagogical principles and practices associated with Ethno gatherings, we draw on Heron's model for facilitation, comprising a continuum of hierarchical, cooperative and autonomous orientations that can support experiential learning. Our discussion is evidenced by data from three sequential research phases involving a document analysis, survey and interviews. At the implicit level, Ethno pedagogy was based upon an aspirational belief in teaching as facilitation, as well as a consistent foundational pedagogical principle of ‘valuing one another through critical approaches to intercultural and experiential learning’. This foundational principle was articulated through principal pedagogical frameworks that were ‘non-formal pedagogies' and 'scaffolding expansive learning’. At the 'surface’ level of activities, the core pedagogical practices that characterized Ethno gatherings were learning by ear (in accordance with an aural tradition), peer learning and self-directed, situated learning. Ethno facilitators positioned themselves primarily within a ‘cooperative’ orientation, although a full continuum from hierarchical to autonomous approaches was described. We conclude this chapter with a summary of the signature pedagogies found in Ethno World, accompanied by some discussion around the link with the wider discipline of music education.

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
