The 2007 HHMI Data Analysis Course at Kenyon CollegeThe HHMI-funded Data Analysis course is conducted as the second half of the Kenyon Excellence in Education Program (KEEP), a six-week residential program designed to facilitate the transition to college life for first-generation college students starting at Kenyon. Developed based on Kenyon's earlier program Science-Math Workshop, the three weeks of Data Analysis follow three weeks of an intensive Writing Program. Through this program, entering students experience the college environment and college-level academics, including demanding assignments and exams. By the end, students are more confident about enrolling in college and are better prepared to meet future challenges. Students also learn about further support available for success in academic work, including the Math Science Skills Center funded by our HHMI 2004 award. Kenyon
