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 poster offers educators an overview of designing a syllabus on the Canvas learning management system that supports personalised learning pathways. It highlights (1) a gamified pedagogy grounded in gaming principles and (2) adaptive learning strategies using MasteryPaths.
In 2018, the Glucksman Library at the University of Limerick launched Leganto, a reading list management tool designed to streamline access to academic resources for students. Leganto ensures equitable access to academic content, helping students engage with reliable sources and easing their transition into university-level study.
This toolkit draws on our experiences facilitating a SATLE-funded community-engaged learning project that brought students of the School of Languages, Literatures, and Cultures (UCC) together with people in Cork seeking international protection for a series of three wellbeing and creativity workshops.
The HEA Education for Sustainable Development Spotlight Series 2025: Case Studies Compendium brings together 115 case studies from higher education institutions across Ireland. It showcases how universities and colleges are integrating sustainability and the UN Sustainable Development Goals into teaching, research, curriculum design, assessment practices and community engagement. It offers a comprehensive picture of national ESD activity and provides an accessible resource for educators and policymakers seeking examples of practice-based innovation.
