MalruleLib: Large-Scale Executable Misconception Reasoning with Step Traces for Modeling Student Thinking in Mathematics

Xinghe Chen, Naiming Liu, Shashank Sonkar

Student mistakes in mathematics are often systematic: a learner applies a coherent but wrong procedure and repeats it across contexts. We introduce MalruleLib, a learning-science-g…

CLEAR-3K: Assessing Causal Explanatory Capabilities in Language Models

Naiming Liu, Richard Baraniuk, Shashank Sonkar

We introduce CLEAR-3K, a dataset of 3,000 assertion-reasoning questions designed to evaluate whether language models can determine if one statement causally explains another. Each…
