Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In the generative AI era, it is increasingly difficult to distinguish polished but generic student writing from work that shows genuine personal insight and expression. Traditional rubrics may unintentionally reward overuse of AI tools by prioritizing fluency. This article presents a lightweight rubric that helps instructors recognize and reward authorship, synthesis and individual voice when writing is imperfect. The tool is easy to implement and encourages thoughtful experimentation.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not 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.
