Behind this dataset
Same schema. As many rows as you need.
These 85 rows came out of a blueprint — 19 columns with generation rules behind each one. Open it in Data Factory to retune a column, add your own, wire in foreign keys, and run it at the size you actually need.
Rules it was built with
- Each row represents a unique session per student per lab activity
- Session durations must range from 10 to 120 minutes
- Activity types limited to Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and Engineering
- Collaboration status notes if session involved group or solo work
- Outcome score reflects project completion and engagement level
- Session timestamps must not overlap per student
