Bibliographic record
Abstract
Break it till you Make it explores the democratization of digital project-based learning with children ages 7-11. Using elementary schools and community centers in Toronto as a case study, this project looks at how we can dramatically lower the cost of digital project-based learning when classes sizes of 30 are commonplace. \n \nThe research investigated the current trends in digital education, and how digital project-based education fosters the 4 Cs: creativity, critical thinking, communication and collaboration. \n \nFinally, the research documented the process of building a low-cost mobile makerspace, cost-effective workshops and participant feedback. The result showed the dramatic reduction of cost per child for digital learning and the scalability of the workshops. \n \nThe overarching methodology used was action-based and incorporated mixed methods to design the workshops. Staff and volunteers participated as facilitators and co-participants. Lastly, the project provides a new lens by which to look at digital making, by using accessible materials and crafting tools.

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; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
