Deb,
 
You can find a few online cognitive activities through the links on the schedule page of my Intro syllabus. 
 
 
Take a look at the links in the right hand column for the topic of memory.  The links with yellow dots in front of them are interactive.  I particularly recommend
 
  "Automatic processes and mindlessness" 
 
  "Personal experience and memory" and
 
  "Cognitive heuristics and fallacious reasoning"
 
all written by Jeff Ricker.

I am trying to come up with a few more activities/homework assignments for
my Intro to Psych class for the Cognition/Language chapter. I have students
do activities outside class that are linked to various topics. For example,
for this chapter, I have them reviewing websites on mental image and
performance, the animal language debate, and how to improve your
creativity/problem solving ability. I like to give my students 5 options to
choose from. I am looking for something on the following that would be an
appropriate activity for intro to psych students (and one I don't need to
spend a page explaining everything). Do any of you have something on
computer and cognition, bilingual abilities, metacognition, or something
else I have missed (memory and intelligence are in another chapter).
