CogLab How to Get Started… Through the website, instructors can set up a group account for their class and track the student and results from each of the 40 interactive cognitive demonstrations.

CogLab By completing the experiments, the class is then able to collect and analyze real data based on their specific class group. This hands-on experience helps students understand each experiment, its underlying cognitive concepts, the data, and the significance of the study.

CogLab Instructors now have the ability to view textual and graphical data created by students as they complete each experiment. CogLab automatically computes average data across student in the group. Both the instructor and the students can view the average data.

CogLab Data tables in CogLab are tab-delimited, which allows easy portability of CogLab data into programs that use spreadsheets such as MS Excel, SPSS, SigmaPlot and many others.
