Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Case studies are valuable tools for student learning and assessment. A variety of formats exist, some of them very basic and easily managed by the instructor and others requiring assistance from someone with training in use of educational software and other forms of media. This is a comparison between a basic case study format in Google Forms and an enhanced case study format in Articulate Storyline integrated into Canvas, evaluating student perceptions of usability and value in their learning and instructor perception of ease of grading. Examples of both formats are presented.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not 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.
