How are you understanding this question as you read it? How are you perceiving these sets of words? How do you remember what you just read? Together, we will discuss how these questions are addressed in the areas of cognitive neuroscience, attention and perception, memory, language, decision-making and emotion. The goals of this course are to develop skills in critical thinking and scientific inquiry, as well as a basic understanding of cognitive science and its applications. We will draw from news stories, journal articles, and video to ground our understanding of cognitive science as it is applied in human-machine interaction and other real-world contexts.
