47
+ - JSONL records with fields such as `text`, `subject`, `competency`, `value`, `theme`, etc.
48
+ - Each record reflects curriculum content or thematic educational sentences linked to specific CBC outcomes.
49
+
50
+ ## Dataset Creation
51
+
52
+ ### Curation Rationale
53
+
54
+ The motivation is to build accessible, machine-readable educational datasets based on CBC to empower teachers, curriculum developers, and AI researchers in Kenya and globally.
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
+ - Local school curriculum content publishers
71
+
72
+ ### Annotations [optional]
73
+
74
+ #### Annotation process
75
+
76
+ Content was annotated using heuristic keyword-label mapping to assign themes, values, and competencies where applicable.
77
+
78
+ #### Who are the annotators?
79
+
80
+ Annotations and labeling done by Kariuki James (teacher and data analyst).
81
+
82
+ #### Personal and Sensitive Information
83
+
84
+ The dataset does not contain personal, sensitive, or private information.
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.
