One of my colleagues developed a computer lab for Cognitive Psychology. You'll find both the syllabus and a link to the actual labs (and some demonstrations - I used the inattention blindness in PSYC101 and the students love it!).
http://www.usd.edu/coglab/ Frank Schieber (the developer) commented that the documentation is quite poor at this stage, but gave the O.K. to have anyone look at it (you can log in as a guest to check it out). I'm sure he would be willing to answer questions regarding the labs. Frank's e-mail can be found at his homepage which is a link at the bottom of the coglab page.

I looked in the TIPS archives and on-line without much luck. What I did find wasn't specific to be of much assistance. I'll appreciate any advice I can get on the lab course. For example, do you use "canned" experiments as in CogLab or something else? Do your students complete original experiments?, etc... I'll later post the results if you respond to me directly.
