Grounded Cognition – 2-IKV-236/15
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
- Activity during the semester (50%). This includes weekly submitting inputs to the moderator and an active participation during discussions.
- Paper presentation and moderation (30%). You will select a topic for presentation, collect the inputs from other students in advance, organize them (details will be explained) and you will moderate the discussion.
- Final reflection (20%). You will write a two-page essay, that will include answers to two points: 1. How you understood the main issues we dealt with (trying to include open questions, if any), 2. How the learnt content enriched your existing knowledge.
- Overall grading (in %): A > 90, B > 80, C > 70, D > 60, E > 50, else Fx.
