|
| 55 |
+
|
| 56 |
+
### Source Data
|
| 57 |
+
|
| 58 |
+
#### Data Collection and Processing
|
| 59 |
+
|
| 60 |
+
- Extracted using Python web scraping tools (BeautifulSoup, Requests)
|
| 61 |
+
- Filtered using regex and keyword match against CBC terms
|
| 62 |
+
- Cleaned for formatting and sentence clarity
|
| 63 |
+
- Manually validated for relevance
|
| 64 |
+
|
| 65 |
+
#### Who are the source data producers?
|
| 66 |
+
|
| 67 |
+
Original content producers include:
|
| 68 |
+
- Kenya Institute of Curriculum Development (KICD)
|
| 69 |
+
- Ministry of Education (Kenya)
|
| 70 |
+

|
| 71 |
+
|
| 72 |
+
### Annotations [optional]
|
| 73 |
+
|
| 74 |
+
#### Annotation process
|
| 75 |
+
|

| 77 |
+
|
| 78 |
+
#### Who are the annotators?
|
| 79 |
+

|
| 85 |
+
|
| 86 |
+
## Bias, Risks, and Limitations
|
| 87 |
+
|
| 88 |
+
- Content bias may arise from limited access to all CBC documents or regional educational variations.
|
| 89 |
+
- The dataset depends on public and scraped online content, which may not fully represent all CBC subjects or grade levels.
|
| 90 |
+
|
| 91 |
+
### Recommendations
|
| 92 |
+
|
| 93 |
+
- Further validation with curriculum experts is advised.
|
| 94 |
+
- Not to be used in isolation for national-level decisions without Ministry review.
