Log file analysis is attractive for at leasttwo reasons: the data is cheap since data gathering can be totally automated and the data isecologically valid since it can be collected outside of the laboratory while the user is engaged inreal tasks [10]. Raw log file data can be manipulated to provide information on unique events,sequences (orderings) of events, and the duration of events [9]. The grain size of the analysisthat can be conducted with log files is constrained by the size and types of events which arebeing recorded.

research can promote retention for a variety of reasons. V. Tinto et. al.1 reportedthat students often fail to graduate due to a lack of persistence, rather than due to lack ofintelligence or ability. Being familiar with “hands-on” technology in a laboratory where theybecome familiar with current equipment boosts self-confidence2. Participation in research groupscan promote persistence in a variety of ways, in part by increasing personal attachment to theresearch group and the research objectives. Secondly, the mentoring process inherent in therelationship between the research supervisor and the student researchers permits identification ofproblems at critical junctures. Finally, the student researchers can learn important skills that willpromote

In the early 1900s, large companies such as IBM,Xerox and AT&T leveraged their resources to form research laboratories that invested millionsof dollars in infrastructure, facilities, and personnel.
