Cog Lab Exercise Schedule


Below is a the list of the CogLab exercises that are to be completed during the current semester. For those exercises marked with the '*' you are to answer the questions from the Francis and Neath CogLab manual that are indicated in the table. Those exercises are graded on a 0-10 point scale. For exercises not marked with the '*', these are due one hour prior to the class meeting on the due date. Those assignments are graded 0 = not completed, 1 = completed late, and 2 = completed on time.

For the Questions to Answer: 'BQ' refers to Basic Questions, 'AQ' refers to Advanced Questions, and 'DQ' refers to Discussion Questions. Your responses to the questions must be typed, single-spaced, in 12-point font, with your name, the assignment number (#), and the assignment name in the upper left corner. For those questions, I am looking for completeness of, and justification in, your response. (See example after table)
