+# Math Dataset for elementary school grade
+
+This repository is dedicated to compiling a comprehensive and balanced dataset tailored to match the mathematics curriculum for 10-year-olds. Our goal is to provide a robust resource that supports the development and evaluation of educational tools like chatbots, which can effectively answer math questions tailored to elementary students.
+
+**For more info, please visit our [GitHub](https://github.com/RamonKaspar/MathDataset-ElementarySchool/).**
+
+## Methodology
+
+We followed a methodical approach to construct this dataset:
+
+- **Classification of Math Questions:** We categorized questions to allow for targeted educational interventions and specialized solution techniques.
+
+- **Search for Suitable Datasets:** We identified datasets for each category, ensuring they align with the learning level and content requirements of elementary school math.
+
+- **Compilation and Sampling:** We combined and randomly sampled from exisitng datasets to create a diverse collection that accurately mirrors the types of math challenges faced by 10-year-olds.
+
+## Categorization
+
+Our dataset categorizes mathematical questions into three groups:
+
+1. **Arithmetic:** Includes basic calculations, measurement conversions, and more. (E.g. "What is 1.20m in mm?" or "What is 12+8?")
+2. **Word Problems:** Engages students with real-world scenarios requiring mathematical solutions. (E.g. "If you split 50$ equally among 5 people, how much does each get?")
+3. **Geometry:** Focuses on shape, space, and measurement problems suitable for young learners. (E.g. "What is the volume of a sphere with radius 6 cm?")
+
+These categories where inspired by [Ahn et al., 2024](https://arxiv.org/abs/2402.00157).
+
+## Dataset Selection Criteria
+
+We adhered to rigorous criteria to ensure the dataset's relevance and quality:
+
+- Language: English-only to maintain consistency across data.
+- Educational Level: Suitable for elementary school math levels.
+- Content Type: Focused exclusively on text-based datasets, avoiding any that include pictures or additional multimedia sources to ensure straightforward analysis.
+- Single Float Answer: The answer to each question is a single float value. This ensures easy evaluation.
+
+# Dataset Overview
+
+### Format
+
+The dataset is a collection of `.json` objects. Each object has the following format:
+
+```json
+{
+  "category": "Arithmetic | Word Problems | Gemoetry",
+  "subcategory": "<divided category further>",
+  "question": "<question>",
+  "answer": "<answer as float>",
+  "reasoning": "(optional) <can be an equation, python program, etc.>",
+  "source": "<source dataset name>"
+}
+```
+
+Example Entry (from the SVAMP dataset):
+
+```json
+{
+  "category": "Word Problem",
+  "subcategory": "challenge",
+  "question": "Dan had $ 3 left with him after he bought a candy bar. If he had $ 4 at the start, how much did the candy bar cost?",
+  "answer": 1.0,
+  "reasoning": "( 4.0 - 3.0 )",
+  "source": "SVAMP"
+}
+```
+
+### Directory Structure & Data Management
+
+The datasets are versioned into three types for each category:
+
+- `<category>_complete.csv/json`: Provides the comprehensive dataset, ideal for extensive analysis.
+- `<category>_1000.csv/json`: A balanced sample of 1000 items, perfect for in-depth testing.
+- `<category>_100.csv/json`: A smaller sample of 100 items, designed for quick assessments.
+
+For ease of access, the complete datasets for smaller samples (`<category>_1000.csv/json` and `<category>_100.csv/json`) are directly accessible within this repository in the data directory.
+
+## Translation to German
+
+We translated the datasets to german (using the DeepL API). See our [GitHub](https://github.com/RamonKaspar/MathDataset-ElementarySchool/) for the dataset and more info.

+## Exploring the Dataset
+
+A nice overview of all available datasets in the mathematical domain can be found in [Lu et al, 2023](https://arxiv.org/abs/2212.10535) and in [Ahn et al., 2024](https://arxiv.org/abs/2402.00157).
+
+In constructing this dataset, we made a concerted effort to include a comprehensive range of datasets that are best suited for the educational level and cognitive abilities of 10-year-olds. While we don't provide extensive details on the selection process for each dataset, our overarching goal was to incorporate as many relevant and suitable datasets as possible.
