Re: Intro to Psych Cogn Chapter activities?

[Jonathan Mueller]

Deb,   You can find a few online cognitive activities through the links on the schedule page of my Intro syllabus.       http://jonathan.mueller.faculty.noctrl.edu/100/100SCHED.HTM   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.   Jon   =============== Jon Mueller Professor of Psychology North Central College 30 N.

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). Deb Dr. Deborah S.
