Abstract
‘Here Be Dragons’, refers to dangerous and unchartered contexts. In this paper the metaphor is used to reflect on both the dangers and the exciting opportunities of a 52 year educational research programme into an individual’s professional development as an educator and educational researcher. It moves from local classroom contexts into UK higher education and then into global, higher education contexts, including the Republic of Ireland, Canada, China, Nepal, India, USA and South Africa with learning from research presentations and workshops in many countries. It includes the clarification of the meanings of embodied values that distinguish a practice as ‘educational’ and constitute the values of human flourishing. It includes the transformation of these embodied values into explanatory principles of practical judgements on educational influences in learning, in the creation of an epistemology for international professional development in education.

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 it
