Community-Engaged Learning: the National Response Within Institutions
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Community-engaged learning (CEL) has become a relevant part of the current experiential and community culture, with more than 30 universities in Canada (and likely more) partaking in some form of CEL at their institution. However, how does each institution implement CEL, and how accessible are digital media and resources for students and communities who want to learn more about CEL at these institutions? Our research primarily focuses on data collection from digital media (e.g., websites, articles, Google searches) and draws conclusions based on our findings. Our team focuses on rating the overall culture of CEL in Canada based on the accessibility, significance, and apparent integration of CEL throughout each institution. Our environmental scan of these factors will determine if CEL is truly becoming a new topic of community culture and if it is worth exercising resources to develop and interrogate CEL at institutions across Canada further.\nThis presentation was created for the purpose of the USRI conference. However, this project will be further continued in a follow-up academic article that will break down the data and significance of CEL at Canadian public institutions with assistance from the team of Dr. Sandra Smeltzer, Dr. Basil Chiasson, Amala Poli, and Giada Ferrucci.

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.
