Cognitive Neuroscientific Approaches to Enhancing Training
Presented by Itiel E. Dror, PhD
This training program on Cognitive Neuroscientific Approaches to Enhancing Training is presented by Itiel E. Dror, PhD and focuses on specific ways in which training can be enhanced through the use of technology aligned with cognitive neuroscience.
This program begins with providing foundational knowledge regarding the general principles and mechanisms of human cognition, including how the brain processes information, how information processing is at the core of training and learning, and specific issues related to information processing such as knowledge representation, encoding and retrieval of information, knowledge utilization, depth of processing and allocation of resources.
Next, the architectural constraints in cognition are described, including limits in information processing load, malfunctions, and the lack of control. Finally, a discussion of domain applications will connect the foundational knowledge and architectural constraints to a variety of cognitive domains relevant to training and learning, including problem solving, memory, skill acquisition, cognitive flexibility, visual cognition, and expertise
Upon completion of this course you will be able to:
Describe foundational information about the human cognitive system
Describe how information and knowledge is acquired, processed, represented, encoded, stored, utilized, and retrieved
Describe how cognitive processing can be used to make learning more efficient
Describe the pitfalls and errors that can occur during information processing
Describe techniques for improving retrieval and utilization of information
