M.S. in Neuroscience and Education - 2 views

  •  
    Hey, everyone. This is an example of a graduate program in Neuroscience and Education. It is the first graduate program in the country to focus on the educational and clinical implications of recent advances in understanding brain-behavior relationships. To be able to bridge the gap between research underlying brain, cognition and behavior, and the problems encountered in schools and other applied settings is one of the goals.

Design‐based research: designing a multimedia environment to support language... - 2 views

  •  
    Adopting a design-based research methodology, this study used digital video technology to support reflective tasks for language learning in multimedia environments. The emphasis was on the improvement of oral communication skills. The reflective tasks used in this study were exposed to iterative design process and the whole research process was driven by two underlying learning theories. This iterative and theory driven design reflects the nature of DBR well.

    Hi Yasin, thanks for sharing the research study. It is a good example for DBR, like you said, as it includes a theory driven iterative process which is one of the most fundamental characteristics of DBR.
  •  
    Is there ant iteration in the design here? Or is it the implementation of three different courses?
  •  
    Hocam, students' reflective practice happened in different formats each year. To be more specific, task-completion tools and task-completion formats were exposed to an iterative design. Each year a different tool and a format were implemented and the reflection by the students progressed in an iterative way though it was conducted with different classes. For example, in 2006, students of Class 1 reviewed their presentations in a multimedia player and reflected on it via a word-processing program. In 2008, YouTube was used for their presentations and they had a collaborative reflective task after being paired with each other. So, a different design was applied for each year but in an iterative fashion.

Genes to Cognition - 1 views

  •  
    Hi all, "Genes to Cognition (G2C) Online is about modern neuroscience. It focuses on cognitive disorders, cognitive processes, and research approaches." What makes this website interesting is its dynamic networks that teach a lot about brain and neuroscience. What is more interesting about the website is 3-D Brain at the top right corner of the site. You can explore every single part of brain via that interactive model. Moreover, you can download it as a free application to your mobile phone through Google Play or App Store. Have fun with it! :)

    Yasin, I liked to much this application, it is too enjoyable, thank you :)

    This is an online course for educators who want to understand how their students learn by helping them connect brain research into classroom practice. This course sheds light on some current issues related to neuroscience. I recommend you have a look at it :)
  •  
    Dear Seda, I like this website too much, thank you :)
  •  
    Its a whole course. Valuable resource for teachers. Similar examples, particularly in Turkey, can bridge the gap between neuroscience findings with the teaching practice.

    This product uses the signals to interpret player facial expressions in real-time. It provides a natural enhancement to interaction by allowing characters to come to life. When a user smiles, their avatar can mimic the expression even before they are aware of their own feelings. You can also examine folowing link: http://www.emotiv.com/insight.php

    merve :) It is amazing video, thank you :)

    This is really impressive. They have used brain signals to control computer. First Computer learns brain signals (pulling a cube in the screen) when person thinks it, then, a person can use that signal to control anything.

    This is amazing. I cannot imagine all the gaming possibilities. Such a system should change the whole human computer interaction in a gaming platform.

Vilayanur Ramachandran: The neurons that shaped civilization - 1 views

  •  
    One of the living science legends, Ramachandran, who is well known for his studies in neuroscience, talks about the influence of 'mirror neurons' in our lives. This video has some implications for complex social learning and for interconnectedness among people happening as a result of our interacting brains.
  •  
    and so many connections to cultural learning. I am curious to read more about his work, like if there is any research on the developmental stages of humans and the development of mirror neurons over the years.
