No, mine don't complain - but then again, the total of all of those
projects are worth 1 test grade. Each coglab is worth 4 points - 1 point
for doing it, 1 for the hypothesis, 1 for the DV, and 1 for the IV. So for
most students it's a help to their grade.

Deb:
I have been increasingly finding that students complain more and more
about the coglabs as busy work. Have you been getting that at all. I used
to assign about 15 of them but have reduced it and STILL get complaints; I
do have the students answer some questions and examine the paradigms AND I
have the students do them in advance of talking about them in class and
analyze their data and show them how they did.
