1 Youth Criminal Justice Act Research Guide
Bibliographic record
Abstract
2 I chose to do the Youth Criminal Justice Act because I was a middle-school teacher until last fall. As such, I have encountered numerous students who have dealt with the Youth Justice System in Canada. I also have many friends who are currently teachers, and feel that any knowledge I gain in this subject area could potentially help their information needs one day if they have a student in trouble. I encountered a bump in the road immediately upon starting this assignment. I thought I was going to do the Young Offenders Act, but as soon as I looked for the legislation I discovered it had been repealed and was replaced by the Youth Criminal Justice Act, which came into effect April 1, 2003. This caused the second, albeit relatively minor, problem – there was not a wealth of information on an act that was less than a year old. Much of the information I found focused on the differences between the new and old acts, which is quite beneficial for lawyers who had worked with the old act, but not the new one.

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; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
