Hi Michelle!

You may find some of the info on my Advanced Stats web page (supporting the 
Keppel & Wickens text) to be useful…especially the lab exercises:

http://www.skidmore.edu/%7Ehfoley/PS318.htm

For data collection/analyses, my Experimental Psychology course would be more 
useful. Each semester, we have a correlation/regression study, a single factor 
study, and a two factor study. However, I don't keep those studies up on the 
web page. I can easily send you the materials for a study on biased eyewitness 
identification (based on materials available at Roy Malpass's site). Another 
fun lab was based on hindsight bias and anagram solutions, but requires 
SuperLab. We've also made use of the Ole Miss site:

http://psychexps.olemiss.edu/

I could also send you a list of many of the studies we've used in that class 
over the past years.

Hi Everyone,

I was hoping to get some new activity ideas for a course I teach on 
experimental design.  This course tends to be on the small side (i.e., perhaps 
around 20 students, give or take).  In the course, students learn about 
different kinds of designs and also about the ways they would analyze data from 
these designs.  We focus on between-subjects designs, within-subjects designs, 
and mixed designs (where we use ANOVA) and we also get into multiple regression 
and analysis of covariance.  We use SPSS as our statistical software package.

Although the class is small, I like, whenever possible, to involve my students 
in activities where they can better understand each design.  I like to be able 
to gather some data from the class that might work to illustrate each different 
design.  This isn't always feasible given the small sample size I have, of 
course.

I know there are sometimes good instructor guides that go along with different 
books (particularly research methods books) that might have activities that are 
meant to illustrate different designs.  Does anyone happen to have some ideas 
of good class activities I might be able to use, or resources I might check out?

Thanks so much for your time and help!

Michelle
