Rivulet is a framework and collection of Python Jupyter notebooks for fetching pedagogically generative scientific datasets. They provide executable templates for accessing, filtering, and evaluating data from public databases using Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) and expert insights regarding quantitative features of scientific interest. Our primary goal is to support educators and curriculum designers finding data that support meaningful statistical and scientific engagement through relevance to both students and to the domain.
