H Carol Back when I used to teach cognitive psychology, there was what I though to be some good software called "Coglab"-- more information can be found here: http://coglab.wadsworth.com/
<http://coglab.wadsworth.com/>I really liked the ability to compile class data on the different activities/experiments. In addition, after each lab activity, the book has some basic, advanced as well as discussion questions one could assign . And with the compilation option, students could write a lab report that references both his/her own as well as the class data. I used this Coglab manual and software embedded with my course.
