2013 Year Three Self-evaluation Report
Bibliographic record
Abstract
certificates largely or entirely by e-Learning 1 .An additional 40 programs were offered in blended or hybrid delivery, combining face-to-face instruction with e-Learning.In two recent studies 2 , both current students and graduates praised access to fully online programs as a major attraction of UAS.Nearly half (47 percent) of UAS students take advantage of e-Learning courses from the University's geographically dispersed campuses and over 40 percent are enrolled primarily through e-Learning.Many are located outside of the region in south-central, interior, and western Alaska.Support for these students is thoroughly integrated into all departments on all three campuses; for example admissions, registration, advising, counseling, disabilities, library, Blackboard, and information technology.UAS programs are delivered through four schools: Arts and Sciences, Education, Management, and Career Education.The rich natural, social, and cultural environment of Southeast Alaska provides generous opportunities for teaching, research, and creative expression in the arts, humanities, and fieldbased science programs of the School of Arts and Sciences.In the formerly NCATE, now CAEP 3accredited School of Education, students intern with master teachers in diverse elementary and secondary settings across the entire state.Offering graduate degrees in special education, school administration, education technology, mathematics education, and reading the School of Education recently agreed to operate the Alaska Learning Network (AKLN), Alaska's virtual high school.This articulation of secondary and post-secondary education is designed to advance opportunities for Alaskan students-especially those in remote communities-to prepare successfully for post-secondary education.The graduates of all Education programs are sought by K-12 school districts statewide.Building upon its location in Juneau-Alaska's capital city-the UAS School of Management offers a variety of training opportunities related to employment in state and local government positions.This School also provides e-Learning programs in public and business administration to meet the needs of students widely distributed throughout Alaska.Over time, this has included opportunities for students in Canada's Yukon Territory (geographically close to Southeast Alaska) to complete their MPA through the UAS program.The School of Career Education offers diverse workforce development programs such as health information management and fisheries technology programs in Sitka, underground mine training in Juneau, and maritime training in Ketchikan, Sitka, and Juneau.Students have numerous opportunities to expand employment skills through occupational endorsements, certificates, and associate degrees.UAS collaborates with other UA units to expand offerings for its students and leverage available resources.In the healthcare arena, for example, UAS cooperates with the University of Alaska Anchorage-designated a decade ago as the lead institution in the state for healthcare education.UAA provides nursing programs with pathways to additional training and advanced degrees in Southeast Alaska.There are also close ties with the University of Alaska Fairbanks for UAS BA and BS degrees in Geography.Even during years of economic difficulties, Alaska has provided relatively stable support for its institutions of higher education, although the current fiscal climate suggests reductions are on the horizon.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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.
