Současný stav výuky českého jazyka na kanadských a amerických univerzitách
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This article examines Czech language instruction at Canadian and American universities, focusing on differences in methodology, enrollment trends, and institutional support. While European programs often follow centrally prescribed curricula, North American courses adopt an open approach, shaped by individual instructors and student needs. Enrollment data reveal the precarious position of Czech studies, with classes frequently limited to only a handful of students. The article also distinguishes between instructors who approach Czech teaching as a scholarly vocation and those who accept it out of employment necessity, with implications for program sustainability. Despite limited resources and professional recognition, Czech continues to attract a dedicated cohort of students interested in language, literature, film, and cultural studies, thereby sustaining its presence in North American higher education.

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.
