Conceptualizing learner support space
Educational Technology Research and Development, 2000This article addresses three types of learner support: (a) support for optimizing use of a computer program, (b) support for learning content, and (c) support for monitoring and enhancing learning. It proposes a multidimensional model of learner-support space defined by the intrusiveness of the delivery methods employed and the prescriptiveness of the ...

Within cognitive science, two approaches currently dominate the problem of modeling representations. The symbolic approach views cognition as computation involving symbolic manipulation. Connectionism, a special case of associationism, models associations using artificial neuron networks. Peter Gärdenfors offers his theory of conceptual representations

In his book ‘Conceptual Spaces’ Ga¨rdenfors (2000) sets out a framework for the representation of concepts and word meanings which defines semantic features as values on ordered property scales and arranges these scales as independent quality dimensions in a multidimensional coordinate system.

Conceptual Spaces as Philosophers’ Tools
2015This paper gives an overview of the main philosophical applications to which conceptual spaces have been put. In particular, we show how they can be used to (i) resolve in a uniform way the so-called paradoxes of identity, which are basically problems concerning material constitution and change over time; (ii) answer one of the core questions in the ...

‘Mobile learning’ is an emerging, and rapidly expanding field of educational research and practice. However, there exist as yet no comprehensive theoretical and conceptual frameworks to explain the complex interrelationship between the characteristics of rapid and sometimes groundbreaking technological developments, their potential for education and ...

From Conceptual Spaces to Predicates
2015Why is a red face not really red? How do we decide that this book is a textbook or not? Conceptual spaces provide the medium on which these computations are performed, but an additional operation is needed: Contrast. By contrasting a reddish face with a prototypical face, one gets a prototypical ‘red’.

Mapping is a well-known facilitation tool widely used for structuring problems and generating critical thinking. It focuses individuals on the concepts and links they use to make sense of their world and their knowledge. Maps are very much like street maps or high-way maps -- they help individuals locate themselves in space, in this case, conceptual ...

Conceptualizing Space and Place
2022Abstract This chapter traces the conceptual genealogies of religious space and place in the modern study of religion. It describes the spatial turn in the field inaugurated by Mircea Eliade and the Chicago History of Religions School, which provoked a revisionist trend, led by Jonathan Z. Smith.
