Abstract
This paper briefly reviews the higher education literature on nonacademic staff evaluation, followed by a description of the development of process of staff performance appraisal being implemented at Atlantic Baptist College (New Brunswick, Canada). Steps in the development process are outlined starting with the writing of a report on compensation evaluation, followed by a gathering of administrators and nonacademic staff to consider the concept of evaluation, the writing of a draft document based on reviews of various evaluation paradigms, and finally, the creation of performance indicators. Refinements to the evaluation process are also briefly highlighted involving the development of a staff self-evaluation form to permit staff to verbalize their opinions about their performance strengths and weaknesses, the staff proficiency evaluation form used in supervisor/staff member dialogues about the evaluation, and the use of the critical incident journal. The complete evaluation program is included in the appendix, including the forms used, performance indicator guidelines, and the college staff evaluation policy and procedures. (GLR) Reproductions supplied by EDRS are the best that can be made from the original document.

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; the direct Gemma label and the distilled Codex classifier agree on what is shown here.
