News and Announcements
Stay up to date with the latest research updates, publications, and announcements from the Computing, Reasoning, and Expression (CoRE) Lab at UC Berkeley.
2026
The CoRE Lab is excited to present our work on the Rivulet design framework at the upcoming 2026 Annual Meeting of the International Society for the Learning Sciences (ISLS). Rivulet is a python-based data pipeline designed to help educators, curriculum designers, and researchers extract pedagogically generative datasets from online telemetry portals (such as EPA air quality and USGS water quality databases).
2025
We are pleased to announce our latest publication, which explores strategies for making large datasets manageable and pedagogically generative for K-12 educators. Published in December 2025, Being ‘Choosy’ in Teaching Statistics with Big Data provides a systematic approach for curriculum developers to downsample and structure public datasets so that they align with GAISE II data literacy standards.
The CoRE Lab presented several research papers and interactive symposia at the 2025 Annual Meeting of the International Society for the Learning Sciences (ISLS). Our presentations highlighted new methodologies for integrating statistical coding in teacher training and exploring computational modeling in classrooms. Thank you to everyone who attended and discussed our sessions!
