Neuromedia, cognitive offloading, and intellectual perseverance [PDF]

open access: yesSynthese, 2022
AbstractThis paper engages in what might be called anticipatory virtue epistemology, as it anticipates some virtue epistemological risks related to a near-future version of brain-computer interface technology that Michael Lynch (2014) calls 'neuromedia.' I analyze how neuromedia is poised to negatively affect the intellectual character of agents ...

Googled Assertion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Recent work in the philosophy of mind and cognitive science (e.g., Clark and Chalmers 1998; Clark 2010a; Clark 2010b; Palermos 2014) can help to explain why certain kinds of assertions—made on the basis of information stored in our gadgets rather than in

Cognitive repeaters for flexible mobile data traffic offloading [PDF]

open access: yes8th International Conference on Cognitive Radio Oriented Wireless Networks, 2013
We investigate the performance of cognitive amplify-and-forward (AF) repeaters in a dense urban environment. The benefit of repeaters is twofold. First, repeaters can compensate penetration losses and serve as wireless backhauling technology to bring high data rates into shielded environments.

What Dynamic Approaches Have Taught Us About Cognition and What They Have Not: On Values in Motion and the Importance of Replicable Forms

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Over the past several decades, research in the cognitive sciences has foregrounded the importance of active bodies and their continuous dependence on the changing environment, strengthening the relevance of dynamical models. These models have been steadily developed within the ecological psychology approach to cognition, which arguably ...

Autonomy, Cognitive Offloading, and Education [PDF]

open access: yesEducational Theory, 2018
AbstractIf we want our intellectual lives to go as well as possible, should we be “delegating” as many information‐gobbling tasks to our gadgets as we can? If not, then how much cognitive outsourcing is too much and, relatedly, what kinds of considerations are relevant to determining this? In this article, J.

Towards a framework for investigating tangible environments for learning [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
External representations have been shown to play a key role in mediating cognition. Tangible environments offer the opportunity for novel representational formats and combinations, potentially increasing representational power for supporting learning ...

Children Devise and Selectively Use Tools to Offload Cognition [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2020
From maps sketched in sand to supercomputing software, humans ubiquitously enhance cognitive performance by creating and using artifacts that bear mental load [1-5]. This extension of information processing into the environment has taken center stage in debates about the nature of cognition in humans and other animals [6-9].
