[Eeglablist] Open Source Resources for Teaching Undergraduates Electrophysiology Methods

[Bukach, Cindy]

The PURSUE project (Preparing Undergraduate for Research in STEM Related fields Using Electrophysiology) is pleased to announce the official launch of our free online teaching materials designed to support teaching electrophysiological methodologies (EEG/ERPs) to undergraduates.


Among the resources available directly on our website PURSUE.com or by request are:

· Sample Syllabi

· Introductory Methods Slides

· 2-3 Day Introduction to EEG/ERPs (powerpoints plus supplemental activities)

· Curated Readings

· Data Processing Labs –Labs include: Filtering, Bad Channels and Epoching, Artifact Rejection, Average and Grand Averages, Waveform Quantification, and Statistical Analysis.

· Sample ERP Data –Raw EEG files and average files are provided for 20 participants for each of three components (P300, N400, an N2pc).  Additionally, data from 5 individual difference measures are provided for each of the components for testing different hypotheses.


These materials are designed for undergraduates but can be used in courses and labs for students and researchers at any level. Most PURSUE class module materials are licensed under Creative Commons ShareAlike 4.0 International (CC BY-NC-SA 4.0) and can therefore be modified for you own use in courses and trainings.

Preparation of these materials was made possible by Supported by grants from NSF DUE 1625521 & 1914858, DUE 1625610 & 1914834, DUE 1626554 & 1914855, the Association for Psychological Science Fund for Teaching and Public Understanding of Psychology Science, and the James S. McDonnell Foundation Scholar Award for Understanding Human Cognition
