Abstract
In this review of Beyond Plagiarism: Transforming Pedagogy to Help Students Write with Sources by Kenny Harsch and Betsy Gilliland, I analyze the book’s contents and key messages. The book attempts to redefine plagiarism by extending the definition beyond the traditional description of not acknowledging sources and promotes a “proactive pedagogy” approach to addressing plagiarism. Teaching students how to avoid plagiarism is recommended as part of teaching writing as a process. The purpose of the book is to guide educators on how to integrate a pedagogical approach to plagiarism by unpacking what plagiarism is and recommending specific tools instructors can use in their courses and assessments. The target audience of the book are faculty who primarily teach and assess through writing, as well as library and learning services staff who assist students with writing and integrating sources in places such as libraries, writing centres, or centres for teaching and learning.

Direct model labels (unvalidated)
Per-model category and study-design labels from the labeling rounds. They are machine output, unvalidated, and the disagreement between models ships as data. No study design here is MEDLINE-validated yet.

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
