Aim
This class serves as an introductory guide to conducting human behavioral experiments online, focusing particularly on accuracy, reaction times, and psychophysical methods. Participants will learn how to design and execute experiments or questionnaire surveys using web-based platforms with open-source, reproducible procedures, share experiments with others and store data online.

Syllabus
Throughout the course, we will delve into two distinct open-source solutions: Psychopy (utilizing its graphical interface, the Builder) and jsPsych (a JavaScript library). Additionally, we will cover the setup and execution of online studies using the JATOS server (Just Another Tool for Online Studies). The course content includes:
- Introduction to Web-based experiments
- Execution of Web-based experiments
- Study development using the Psychopy Graphical Interface
- Study development with the jsPsych JavaScript library
- Running studies in JATOS and managing data collection
