Grounded Cognition – 2-IKV-236a/19

The course objective is to provide students with deeper insight into up-to-date research trends in cognitive science, from the perspective of various disciplines (psychological, neural and computational). The course focus is on grounded (embodied) cognition, and its relation to language. The course should also help students in their ability to interpret scientific papers, to formulate, present and defend ideas.

The course is a part of Master Programme in Cognitive Science.

Grading

  • Weekly activity during the semester (40%). This includes weekly submitting inputs to the moderator and active participation during discussions.
  • Paper presentation and discussion moderation (30%). You will present a selected topic (one of the papers in the syllabus), collect by email the inputs (one question or a discussion point) from other students in advance (until Sunday, 20:00). The inputs should will sent to the moderator, with the subject "author" (use the first author's surname). The moderator organizes the questions for discussion that he/she will moderate in the class.
  • Final group presentation (30%). You will be organized in small groups (3-4 students) and will prepare a final presentation on the topic of your choice relevant for the course.
  • Overall grading (in %): A > 90, B > 80, C > 70, D > 60, E > 50, else Fx.

Attendance

You are expected to regularly attend the class. In case of absence, inform the teacher about the reason. Max. two absences are ok (i.e. without losing points).
