The assignments below are the ones assigned in class to do via this Website. In some cases, you are to answer questions on paper and turn them in at class.

To get credit for the logic test, the personality test, or the practice quiz, put the last four digits of your student ID (CWID) in the comments box. Some of these materials are notes to help you study or perceptual demonstrations to experience, rather than items for credit.
