Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Kant's glorification of "autonomy" may have helped fertilize the prevalent contemporary educational focus on nurturing individual instrumental reasoning-which, it will be argued, diminishes autonomy, since the sort of "objective" reasoning of which Kant speaks requires the "bias-neutralizing" power of reasoning with others.Following an analysis of how the emergence of self-consciousness creates a space for a sense of freedom of choice and the drive to excel, it will be argued, referring to Kant's pre-critical work, that self-creating self-legislation requires independence from both the determining force of our natural inclinations and our drive to excel, and that an education for this dual independence requires that educators shift the focus from trying to make individuals smart, to trying to create "smart spaces" of communal inquiry with the goal of anchoring the recognition that engaging in reasoned dialogue with those of differing viewpoints in the only route to "Deep Agency.

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.
