Michael, One more thing, I am using Frieman's "Learning and Adaptive Behavior" text. I have used it for the past two semesters and my students really enjoy it. It is not too intense for them. Jerry Frieman gives a lot of good everyday examples that the students can apply to their lives.

It is a bit tough for the students (it is a 200 level class) but they manage to get through it. For the lab, I use my own manual. The students do a series of 9 experiments: 1) magazine training 2) bar pressing 3) extinction 4) discrimination 5) FR schedules 6) extinction again (after FR schedule - looking for PREE) 7) chaining with a complex response (like Breland and Breland) 8) Superstition 9) Design your own project (worth double points) If you like, I can send off a copy of what I use. -- Jim Dougan At 08:26 AM 1/31/2003 -0500, Lavin, Michael wrote: > > >TIPSters For many years I have taught a Skinner-based Animal/Rat Lab >course.
