Cognitive Bias Lab is an interactive platform designed to help learners explore and practice recognizing cognitive biases. Through simulations, quizzes, and role-play scenarios, it supports critical thinking, decision-making skills, and classroom discussions in psychology, education, and media literacy.
Benefit of this resource and how to make the best use of it
Cognitive Bias Lab offers an engaging, research-informed approach to teaching cognitive biases through interactive tools such as simulations, quizzes, and chatbot role-play. It enhances critical thinking and metacognitive skills by helping learners identify how biases shape judgment and decision-making in real-world scenarios.
Educators can use the platform as:
A flipped classroom activity, where students explore simulations before group discussion
An in-class exercise to provoke critical debate on reasoning and bias
A formative assessment tool, allowing learners to test and reflect on their understanding
A module supplement in psychology, behavioral economics, media literacy, or teacher training courses
A design thinking warm-up for product or UX design students to identify user-side bias risks
The platform is modular and adaptable, allowing instructors to embed individual exercises into LMSs, customize discussion prompts, or pair activities with academic readings. It supports accessibility through intuitive navigation and is freely available to promote equitable access to high-quality learning resources.

This case study outlines a first-year intervention at SETU Waterford using a timetabled weekly session to tackle common causes of academic failure such as time management, assessment planning. and study skills. It is intended for programme teams seeking practical, low-resource approaches to improving student progression and retention.
This OER presents findings from a comparative study of novice programmers engaging in face-to-face and hybrid pair programming. It explores collaboration patterns, role switching, satisfaction, and challenges, offering evidence-based insights for educators seeking to prepare students for effective teamwork in modern hybrid software development.
This OER explores novice programmers’ experiences of pair programming across face-to-face, hybrid, and remote settings. It provides insights into collaboration, role switching, satisfaction, and challenges, helping educators and students understand how to effectively prepare learners for modern hybrid software development environments.
This OER guides students through human-in-the-loop software development, demonstrating how AI tools can be effectively supervised, refined, and integrated across the Software Lifecycle. Designed for computing educators and learners, it combines agile practice, teamwork, DISC awareness, testing, and critical reflection on human–AI collaboration.
