Описание:
In the World Library of Psychologists series, international experts themselves present career-long collections of what they judge to be their finest pieces - extracts from books, key articles, salient research findings, and their major practical theoretical contributions.
In this volume Max Velmans reflects on his long-spanning and varied career, considers the highs and lows in a brand new introduction and offers reactions to those who have responded to his published work over the years. This book offers a unique and compelling collection of the best publications in consciousness studies from one of the few psychologists to treat the topic systematically and seriously. Velmans' approach is multi-faceted and represents a convergence of numerous fields of study - culminating in fascinating insights that are of interest to philosopher, psychologist and neuroscientist alike.
With continuing contemporary relevance, and significant historical impact, this collection of works is an essential resource for all those engaged or interested in the field of consciousness studies and the philosophy of the mind.

Описание: This book explores the symbiotic relationship between culture and creativity, particularly exploring how resources and cultural values within a society can foster or hinder creativity. Next, this compilation proposes a new method for measuring product creativity with verification of its metric characteristics. This approach entails the construction of a creativity coefficient and a uniqueness coefficient, which are based on the assessment of the originality of the answers provided by respondents. The connection between objective indicators of creativity and its representation on the level of self-consciousness is also discussed by way of a new questionnaire for implicit theories of creativity that diagnoses four scales: originality, intelligence and personal potential, novelty and activity. The authors propose and demonstrate how a student must perceive that the ability to self-correct any discrepancies between actual and desired performance is possible and achievable in order to exhibit a positive response to feedback. "Zones of in-between" are defined as organisational, social and physical spaces at school that have the potential to allow for something else than their ostensible purposes in teaching and teacher-pupil relations. Different types of presence, interactions and expressions occur when pupils have a pause from teaching and interact with other pupils. This kind of creativity is formed by and takes place in sociocultural margins and peripheries. The final paper is a qualitative narrative examination of undergraduate students experiences in a fully online learning community, describing how a community of 90 students divided into three sections of 30 participated in a blended course for 12 weeks which used flipped classroom video podcasts, online discussion boards, and weekly synchronous Adobe Connect conferencing.

Описание:
The motivation of this edited book is to generate an understanding about information, related concepts and the roles they play in the modern, technology permeated world. In order to achieve our goal, we observe how information is understood in domains, such as cosmology, physics, biology, neuroscience, computer science, artificial intelligence, the Internet, big data, information society, or philosophy. Together, these observations form an integrated view so that readers can better understand this exciting building-block of modern-day society.
On the surface, information is a relatively straightforward and intuitive concept. Underneath, however, information is a relatively versatile and mysterious entity. For instance, the way a physicist looks at information is not necessarily the same way as that of a biologist, a neuroscientist, a computer scientist, or a philosopher. Actually, when it comes to information, it is common that each field has its domain specific views, motivations, interpretations, definitions, methods, technologies, and challenges.
With contributions by authors from a wide range of backgrounds, Understanding Information: From the Big Bang to Big Data will appeal to readers interested in the impact of 'information' on modern-day life from a variety of perspectives.

Описание: What is the difference between right and wrong? This is no easy question to answer, yet we constantly try to make it so, frequently appealing to some hidden cache of cut-and-dried absolutes, whether drawn from God, universal reason, or societal authority. Combining cognitive science with a pragmatist philosophical framework in Morality for Humans: Ethical Understanding from the Perspective of Cognitive Science, Mark Johnson argues that appealing solely to absolute principles and values is not only scientifically unsound but even morally suspect. He shows that the standards for the kinds of people we should be and how we should treat one another--which we often think of as universal--are in fact frequently subject to change. And we should be okay with that. Taking context into consideration, he offers a remarkably nuanced, naturalistic view of ethics that sees us creatively adapt our standards according to given needs, emerging problems, and social interactions. Ethical naturalism is not just a revamped form of relativism. Indeed, Johnson attempts to overcome the absolutist-versus-relativist impasse that has been one of the most intractable problems in the history of philosophy. He does so through a careful and inclusive look at the many ways we reason about right and wrong. Much of our moral thought, he shows, is automatic and intuitive, gut feelings that we follow up and attempt to justify with rational analysis and argument. However, good moral deliberation is not limited merely to intuitive judgments supported after the fact by reasoning. Johnson points out a crucial third element: we imagine how our decisions will play out, how we or the world would change with each action we might take. Plumbing this imaginative dimension of moral reasoning, he provides a psychologically sophisticated view of moral problem solving, one perfectly suited for the embodied, culturally embedded, and ever-developing human creatures that we are.

Описание: This volume argues in favour of rethinking basic issues in cognitive science in the context of late-1990s developments. One of the issues that is investigated is the importance of simulation as a methodological tool for theory development in cognitive science.
