The symposium is a collaboration between UND and the North Dakota Department of Public Instruction (NDDPI), the North Dakota LEAD Center, the North Dakota Council of Educational Leaders (NDCEL), the North Dakota Regional Education Association (NDREA), and the Advisory Council for Educational Leaders (ACEL) . The symposium is titled "Professional Capital: Leadership for the Transformation of Teaching in Every School." This EDL symposium is expected to be an annual gathering of educational leaders from North Dakota, South Dakota and Minnesota, Canada, and the United Kingdom. This inaugural event will be held Thursday, April 24 and Friday, April 25 at the Alerus Center in Grand Forks. The symposium is designed to facilitate discourse on the impact and effectiveness of strategies to develop, "professional capital" among a broad constituency, which includes colleges of higher education, PK-12 administrators, academic researchers, government agencies and other professionals from North Dakota and beyond. The symposium will be a rich mix of practice and research with conversation, networking opportunities, hands-on workshops and engagements with professionals and academics. The symposium will highlight two keynote presentations by Andrew Hargreaves and Michael Fullan, co-authors of the book for which this symposium is based on, Professional Capital: Transforming Teaching in Every School, Teachers College Press, New York City. Hargreaves, the Thomas More Brennan Chair in the Lynch School of Education at Boston College is the founding editor-in-chief of the Journal of Educational Change and leading editor of the first and second International Handbooks of Educational Change. His books have achieved outstanding writing awards from the American Educational Research Association, the American Libraries Association, the National Staff Development Council and the American Association of Colleges for Teacher Education, and are translated into many languages. Fullan, professor emeritus of the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education at the University of Toronto, is an authority on educational reform. Fullan is engaged in advising policymakers and local leaders around the world on how to help all children receive an education. He is currently special advisor to the Premier and Minister of Education in Ontario and his book Leading in a Culture of Change was awarded the 2002 Book of the Year Award by Learning Forward. Another highlight of this year's symposium will be an in-depth discussion of the state guidelines for Principal & Teacher Evaluation. The evaluation of principal performance is the procedure that school districts use to determine how well principals are performing their duties and the effects of their work on student achievement. Pauline Stonehouse, an assistant professor, and Sherry Houdek, associate professor, both in UND's EDL, led efforts to organize the symposium; Michael Schepp, coordinator of EDL Distance Education, was instrumental behind the scenes.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
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; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
