    Dear Colleagues,

    UCLA is going to online instruction at least for a while. For those of you in a similar situation, the following digital labs are available for free courtesy of a grant from the National Science Foundation. We tried to make these plug-and-play, but you may need to create an instructor account to get to some of the materials--just contact us for that or with questions.

    All materials are at https://nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmdcune.psych.ucla.edu%2F&data=02%7C01%7Cjuramirez%40davidson.edu%7C6a7d6368c0944810470d08d7c5e763f0%7C35d8763cd2b14213b629f5df0af9e3c3%7C1%7C1%7C637195469910936722&sdata=Rz1CFv4hT7R%2BQPeJ0EsYB7TMOz%2FlUgS6hKsd%2B2nmJBs%3D&reserved=0
