Benefits of Readers Theatre: An inclusive, participatory, arts-based research approach with youth
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Readers Theatre is an inclusive, arts-based research approach that can be utilized for data collection and data generation. We discuss six benefits of using Readers Theatre in research that was conducted on understanding the experiences of Asian Canadian youth and identity during times of heightened racial tension. The benefits of using Readers Theatre with youth include 1) Readers Theatre privileges the first-voice; 2) it is low-stakes; 3) it is inclusive with direct benefits; 4) it actively engages youth in multifaceted ways; 5) it captures details, feelings, emotions and nuances; and 6) it embodies a participatory approach that enhances validity. Readers Theatre is a novel and engaging approach to qualitative research data collection with youth that offers a way for youth to resist stereotypical discourses and better explore cultural identity within racialized youth. Key words: Readers Theatre, youth, identity, arts-based research.

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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
