What this module teaches

Average performance claims hide where failure lands, especially when the failing cases are concentrated on people with the least power to challenge the system.

Participants learn

  • Why headline accuracy is not the same as accountability.
  • How to ask which groups, cases, or field conditions sit inside the failing percentage.
  • How performance metrics become theatre when failure distribution is ignored.

Practice work

  • Break a performance claim into affected groups and edge cases.
  • List the people who cannot appeal the false positive or false negative.
  • Write a distributional audit question set.

Outputs

  • Failure-distribution worksheet
  • Metric interrogation questions
  • Accountability gap note

How this module can expand in a workshop

Long-form teaching material should consolidate Accuracy Theater, the 201 Gap, and distributional audit examples.

In a live session this can become exercises, review prompts, templates, and team-specific examples.
