    Deja vu for both teams Sunday night fare is our repetition of the conflict from four years ago at the same stage of the tournament. We were happy to settle for a repeat of that with a view to our betting options. Argentina were the undisputed stars of the group stage comfortably emerging with nine points while playing excellent football along the way.

    The proposed constitution would give parliament more power and set the stage for general elections in September. Several hundred people died in clashes between ethnic Kyrgyz and Uzbeks in the south, earlier in June. The Provisional Government called a referendum Sunday, after President Kurmanbek Bakiyev was overthrown in April. Polls opened at 0800 (0200 GMT) and close at 2000 (1400G GMT), with results expected Monday.

    The Cognition Laboratory is a part of the Human-Automation Integration Research Branch at NASA Ames Research Center. We conduct research which involves modeling the human operator in human-machine systems and experiments on normal human perceptual and cognitive processes. Current modeling efforts focus on the task of the human operator in Air Traffic Control. Experiments range from basic to applied. All experiments are administered via computer, with participants watching the monitor and answering by using the keyboard or mouse. Examples of experiments include attentional control, dual-tasking, and the detection of conflicts in an Air Traffic Control display.

Cognitive learning research storytelling story

  • The penultimate sentence is in parenthesis to indicate that some saw the sentence and some didn't. Subjects found the passage more interesting if the reason for the ending was not explicitly in the passage. Similar effects have been reported for more educational materials (e.g., historical passages, see Frick, 1992).

      So don't give away everything or be too explicit. Leave the reader with something to analyze or think about.
  • One key reason that stories are easy to comprehend is because we know the format, and that gives us a reasonable idea of what to expect. When an event is described in a story, we expect that the event will be causally related to a prior event in the story. The listener uses his or her knowledge of story structure to relate the present event to what has already happened.
  • Subjects remember about 50 percent more from the stories than from the expository passages.

  • Stories Are Easier to Remember
  • Stories and Story Structure in the ClassroomStories are interesting, easy to comprehend, and easy to remember; and even preschoolers have some appreciation of story structure (Wenner, 2004). Exactly what has led our minds to handle stories in such a privileged way is not well understood, but it has been suggested that understanding the actions and characters in a story calls on the same processes we use in trying to understand the actions and intentions of people in the real world (Bower, 1978). We evolved as a social species, and so we may have special cognitive apparatus to deal with social situations that are co-opted in thinking about stories.
  • How can teachers capitalize on the privileged status of stories? There are two groups of applications. First, obviously enough, one can tell more stories. Second, where stories are inappropriate, it may still be useful to inject elements from the story format into lessons. Both approaches are discussed here.
  • Tell more stories in class.
  • Have students read stories outside of class.
  • Tell stories to older students.
  • Use the four Cs to structure lessons
  • Since stories are interesting, easy to remember, and easy to understand, they are an ideal introduction to a new unit. The teacher can introduce new material in a way that is both non-threatening and interesting.
  • Use the most important C—conflict.
  • Screenwriters know that the most important of the four Cs is the conflict. If the audience is not compelled by the problem that the main characters face, they will never be interested in the story.
