The top 60 of America's 100 Most Wired Colleges 1999: http://www.zdnet.com/yil/content/college/colleges99/colleges8.htmlOn these pages, first look for the Instructional Technology or Curricular Computing or Teaching and Learning site, and from there look at highlighted syllabi. Then go to Psychology and try to find course syllabi.

Sroll down the page to find them. http://www.edge.org/documents/archive/edge7.html In Edge 8, scroll down to sections by Goleman and by Pinker, followed by LeDoux's rejoinder. http://www.edge.org/documents/archive/edge8.html These are very interesting reading. In particular, we should discuss Pinker's comments, e.g. on innate vs. learned emotions.

I've tried these:
The famous Implicit Attitudes Test (IAT) http://www.yale.edu/implicit/homepage.html
Ewww! That's Disgusting: http://www.cog.jhu.edu/~disgust/ Several pages of long lists of things (like vomit or blood-drawing) that might make one uncomfortable or fearful. Different kinds of ratings are required on different pages. (After completing the whole thing it couldn't submit my results because couldn't locate the server)
"Sexually attractive Male faces" http://www.cops.uni-sb.de/exhenss/hex1/attme.htm
Paul Kenyon's tutorial on "How to put questionnaires on the internet." http://salmon.psy.plym.ac.uk/mscprm/forms.htm
A student project on the Psychology of Aesthetics. Apparently presents mpeg animations which participants rate. The animations don't work in Navigator, however, so I haven't viewed them. (Some of the introductory instructions are useful.) http://salmon.psy.plym.ac.uk/research/horne/dissintro1.htm
go to http://salmon.psy.plym.ac.uk/research/horne/ for the complete directory of experiment and picture files. There's one called template.htm that has a potentially useful framework for a rating study.
http://salmon.psy.plym.ac.uk/research/horne/ques1i.htm shows a tabular questionnaire, presented in a frame at the bottom of the page. The target image remains on the top while the ratings are completed. The frame structure is set up by the file http://salmon.psy.plym.ac.uk/research/horne/frame1i.htm
A bettter layout might be the one in http://salmon.psy.plym.ac.uk/research/horne/SECONDRY.HTM where the picture is on the left and the rating scale scrolls down on the right.
Here's a facial expression of emotions pilot experiment: http://www.psy.unipd.it/personal/laboratorio/surprise/htmltesi/Present.html
I've save the source code for the instructions and main exp page. About 9 schematic upper faces ("artificial pictograms") are presented (in random order?), with a surprise rating scale under each. A very simple scheme.
Also from the Univ of Padua is a discussion of using the web for data acquisition, together with links to similar discussions elsewhere: http://www.psy.unipd.it/personal/laboratorio/surprise/htmltesi/metod2.html
From the Univ of Zurich comes the Web's Experimental Psychology Lab at http://www.psych.unizh.ch/genpsy/Ulf/Lab/WebExpPsyLab.html This is an award-winning site.
Here are some other experiments we might like to be able to produce. Can we figure out how they did them?

The MIT Dept. of Brain and Cognitive Sciences has a very attractive home page. http://web-bcs.mit.edu/
Mark Pezzo at Wake Forest has created an impressive frame-based web site: http://www.wfu.edu/~pezzomv/. He also has an interesting set of psych links, arranged in a two-column (hidden) table. http://www.wfu.edu/~pezzomv/intro/PsychologyLinks.htm

Course Web Sites with features worth emulating (not Psychology) |
The Univ of Delaware provides syllabus templates for faculty to adapt to their courses. This page shows nine different layouts. The layouts themselves aren't spectacular (they all use just one long page, and take a while to load), but they prompt the prof to supply useful info. In that way they could be particularly good for first time faculty or for developing a new course. http://www.udel.edu/present/templates/syls/sylsexamps.html
A 10th template, from the above site, uses frames with links to separate pages. http://www.udel.edu/present/templates/sylframe/index.html
A Very Simple Syllabus layout, using frames. http://www.dartmouth.edu/~coco9/index.html one nice feature it has is a "students links" pages, including a form for students to submit their favorite links. I wonder if the submitted information is automatically added to the page. That would be great.
Course syllabi featured at the ITEC (Inst Tech Enhanc Curric) site of Bucknell include this one for a Bio course where the Index items emenate from the mouth of a frog: http://www.facstaff.bucknell.edu/toner/gb/ notice that the "map" links are repeated as simple text links a little lower on the page; perhaps for older browsers? No frames at this site; the web resource page has annotated links.
Here's another "thematic" course page, this one for Conservation Biology: See the distinctive gifs used to mark pages. http://www.facstaff.bucknell.edu/abrahmsn/bi415/
Curricular Computing Sites designed at Dartmouth for various courses http://www.dartmouth.edu/%7Ecc/projects/course.html
Here's a nice one on John Milton, that one enters through a graphic page, but then simpler frames are used. http://www.dartmouth.edu/~engl28/
Here's another very nice and simple syllabus framework. This one includes several online forms, including an online course evaluation. I like it! http://www.dartmouth.edu/~hist57/questionnaire.html
What NOT to emulate: "Web Pages that Suck" at http://www.webpagesthatsuck.com/
A free tool for developing cascading style sheets, which we shouldn't bother doing (according to webpagesthatsuck.com): http://builder.cnet.com/Authoring/CSS/ss12.html
Here (from Bucknell's ITEC) is a tutorial on how to use Adobe PhotoDeluxe to prepare pictures for PowerPoint presentations. Although it's specifically tailored for scanned images, it might work for images copied from the web, too. http://coral.bucknell.edu/departments/library/adobe/
Here's is a nice frame-based course site (on the Teaching of Biology), also from the Bucknell ITEC: http://www.facstaff.bucknell.edu/nyquist/BI317/main.html
Here's a well-done Philosophy of Mind course site from Virginia Tech. http://mind.phil.vt.edu/www/4204.html. Notice how PowerPoint clip art was modified for the headers. Also, see the animated gif on the home page.
Web authors are invited to reuse the Java script on this page. http://www.hal.com/ It randomly presents images within a 3 x 3 grid. Imagine an ever-changing array of facial expressions or affect-evoking images. If one could randomly vary the images within each position, then one could portray the valence x arousal space.
Abdel's Learning and Memory Web? I haven't reviewed this yet, but it looks interesting. See virtual posters, and info on teaching. May have features of interest to emotion seminar as well. http://psy71.dur.ac.uk/index.html
Illusionworks http://www.illusionworks.com/ "the most comprehensive collection of optical and sensory illusions on the world-wide web. This award-winning collection consists of innumerable interactive demonstrations, up-to-date and reliable scientific explanations, school projects, illusion artwork, interactive puzzles, 3D graphics, suggested reading lists, bibliographies, perception links, and much more"
"Out of signt, out of mind" has illusions and online experiments relating to vision. http://www.nmsi.ac.uk/on-line/outofsight/index.html

Gilbert, a developmental Bio professor, teaches several interesting courses and maintains a web site to accompany his dvlp bio textbook: http://zygote.swarthmore.edu/
There are great graphics accompanying the "chapters" here. Should use WEB BUDDY to download this site for my own use. (don't take the entire Zygote site; perhpas start from the Topics table of contents and go 3 levels deep)
"Knowledge of Alcohol as a Teratogen" is Gilbert's web-paper on the early discovery, and later repudiation, of deleterious effects of alcohol on development. Would make interesting reading in either Dvlp Psych or Children at Risk: http://zygote.swarthmore.edu/env7.html
"Haeckel and the Vertebrate Archetype" is Gilbert's web paper on the misinformation in Haeckel's widely held claim of identity in early embryonic development. Several useful diagrams and photos of embyos at this site. http://zygote.swarthmore.edu/evo5.html
