Are engineering teachers ready to leverage the power of play to teach transversal skills?

Roland John Tormey, Jessica Elke Dehler Zufferey, Siara Ruth Isaac, Yousef Jalali, Natascia Petringa

What conceptions do teachers hold about learning activities to develop students’ transversal skills? This qualitative exploration at a research-intensive engineering school draws on interviews and focus groups to explore teachers’ ideas about developing in ...

Bodily self-consciousness as a framework to link sensory information and self-related components of episodic memory: behavioral, neuroimaging, and clinical evidence

Nathalie Heidi Meyer

The recollection of sensory information and subjective experience related to a personal past event depends on our episodic memory (EM). At the neural level, EM retrieval is linked with the reinstatement of hippocampal activity thought to recollect the sens ...

Co-simulation of complex engineered systems enabled by a cognitive twin architecture

Dimitrios Kyritsis, Jinzhi Lu

Since the complex engineered system involves multi-disciplinary, co-simulation is the key technique to the performance analysis. However, the co-simulation is hindered by heterogeneous sub-systems and ununified environments. In this paper, a Cognitive Twin ...

Brain connectivity and metacognition in persons with subjective cognitive decline (COSCODE): rationale and study design

Ileana Ozana Jelescu

Background Subjective cognitive decline (SCD) is the subjective perception of a decline in memory and/or other cognitive functions in the absence of objective evidence. Some SCD individuals however may suffer from very early stages of neurodegenerative dis ...

Sensorimotor conflicts alter metacognitive and action monitoring

Olaf Blanke, Roy Salomon, Fosco Bernasconi, Nathan Quentin Faivre, Laurène Véronique Vuillaume

While sensorimotor signals are known to modulate perception, little is known about their influence on higher-level cognitive processes. Here, we applied sensorimotor conflicts while participants performed a perceptual task followed by confidence judgments. ...

Disentangling the origins of confidence in speeded perceptual judgments through multimodal imaging

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Olaf Blanke, José del Rocio Millán Ruiz, Inaki Asier Iturrate Gil, Nathan Quentin Faivre, Michael Eric Anthony Pereira, Stéphanie Martin, Arnaud Marc Desvachez

The human capacity to compute the likelihood that a decision is correct—known as metacognition—has proven difficult to study in isolation as it usually cooccurs with decision making. Here, we isolated postdecisional from decisional contributions to metacog ...

First-person body view modulates the neural substrates of episodic memory and autonoetic consciousness: A functional connectivity study

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Olaf Blanke, Bruno Herbelin, Nathan Quentin Faivre, Thomas William Arthur Bolton, Baptiste Gauthier, Robin Mange, Lucie Bréchet, Florian Lance

Episodic memory (EM) is classically conceived as a memory for events, localized in space and time, and characterized by autonoetic consciousness (ANC) allowing to mentally travel back in time and subjectively relive an event. Building on recent evidence th ...

Learning By Collaborative Teaching : An Engaging Multi-Party CoWriter Activity

Pierre Dillenbourg, Wafa Monia Benkaouar Johal, Laila Abdelsalam El-Hamamsy, Thibault Lucien Christian Asselborn, Jauwairia Nasir

This paper presents the design of a novel and engaging collaborative learning activity for handwriting where a group of participants simultaneously tutor a Nao robot. This activity was intended to take advantage of both collaborative learning and the learn ...

Underlying mechanisms of episodic autobiographical memory and self-consciousness

Lucie Bréchet

Cognitive neuroscience has been examining consciousness associated with the subject, that is the self of the conscious experience and its related multisensory processing of bodily signals, the so-called bodily self-consciousness. Different line of research ...

Behavioural, modeling, and electrophysiological evidence for supramodality in human metacognition

Olaf Blanke, Nathan Quentin Faivre

Human metacognition, or the capacity to introspect on one's own mental states, has been mostly characterized through confidence reports in visual tasks. A pressing question is to what extent results from visual studies generalize to other domains. Answerin ...

Consciousness is more than meets the eye: a call for a multisensory study of subjective experience

Nathan Quentin Faivre, Roy Salomon

Over the last 30 years, our understanding of the neurocognitive bases of consciousness has improved, mostly through studies employing vision. While studying consciousness in the visual modality presents clear advantages, we believe that a comprehensive sci ...

Towards building an attentive artificial listener: on the perception of attentiveness in audio-visual feedback tokens

Jean-Marc Odobez, Yu Yu, Catharine Regina Monika Maria Oertel Genannt Bierbach, Kenneth Alberto Funes Mora

Current dialogue systems typically lack a variation of audio-visual feedback tokens. Either they do not encompass feedback tokens at all, or only support a limited set of stereotypical functions. However, this does not mirror the subtleties of spontaneous ...

An invisible touch: Body-related multisensory conflicts modulate visual consciousness

Olaf Blanke, Nathan Quentin Faivre, Roy Salomon, Javier Bello Ruiz

The majority of scientific studies on consciousness have focused on vision, exploring the cognitive and neural mechanisms of conscious access to visual stimuli. In parallel, studies on bodily consciousness have revealed that bodily (i.e. tactile, proprioce ...

Recovery of the default mode network after demanding neurofeedback training occurs in spatio-temporally segregated subnetworks

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Rotem Roza Kopel

The default mode (DM) network is a major large-scale cerebral network that can be identified with functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) during resting state. Most studies consider functional connectivity networks as stationary phenomena. Consequentl ...

Trait anxiety and post-learning stress do not affect perceptual learning

Michael Herzog, Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Aaron Michael Clarke, Carl Kristoffer Aberg

While it is well established that stress can modulate declarative learning, very few studies have investigated the influence of stress on non-declarative learning. Here, we studied the influence of post-learning stress, which effectively modulates declarat ...

Facilitating peer knowledge modeling: Effects of a knowledge awareness tool on collaborative learning outcomes and processes

Pierre Dillenbourg, Marc-Antoine Nüssli

We report an empirical study where we investigated the effects, on the collaborative outcomes and processes, of a cognition-related awareness tool providing learners with cues about their peer’s level of prior knowledge. Sixty-four university students part ...

The effects of practice schedule and critical thinking prompts on learning and transfer of a complex judgment task

Many instructional strategies that appear to improve learners' performance during training may not realize adequate posttest performance or transfer to a job. The converse has been found to be true as well: Instructional strategies that appear to slow the ...
