Abstract
ABSTRACT In this response to Røkenes and Jornet as part of the special issue Centering Affect and Emotion Toward Justice and Dignity in Science Education , we celebrate the contributions they make as they analyze Norwegian teenagers grappling with hope and hopelessness as part of a disciplinary unit on environmental sustainability. We discuss various ways of treating hope and hopelessness as emotional configurations and sensemaking tools. We draw on alternate theorizations of hope, including hope as a discipline, active hope, and critical hope, to argue for politicized understandings of hopelessness as an often‐necessary part of climate education. We argue that if hope is a learning target for science education, critical science educators must teach and practice social movement repertoires that build power, giving young people a taste of meaningful social action and embedding them in politicized relations of solidarity.

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
