Thinking with external representations
TL;DR: Seven ways external representations enhance cognitive power are discussed: they change the cost structure of the inferential landscape; they provide a structure that can serve as a shareable object of thought; they facilitate re-representation; they are often a more natural representation of structure than mental representations; and they lower the cost of controlling thought—they help coordinate thought.

Organizing Thoughts and Connecting Brains: Material Practices and the Transition from Individual to Group-Level Prospective Sensemaking
Ileana Stigliani,Davide Ravasi +1 more
TL;DR: This paper developed a process model that accounts for the interplay between conversational and material practices in the transition from individual to group-level sensemaking, and unpack how the materialization of cognitive work supports the collective construction of new shared understandings.

Embodied cognition and the magical future of interaction design
TL;DR: The theory of embodied cognition can provide HCI practitioners and theorists with new ideas about interaction and new principles for better designs, and these ideas have major implications for interaction design, especially the design of tangible, physical, context aware, and telepresence systems.

Representationalism and Power: The Individual Subject and Distributed Cognition in the Field of Educational Technology.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors argue that most educational technologists interested in distributed cognition embrace a representational theory of mind, which is informed by a mind/body dualism that separates the individual student from material things.
Exploring the Use of Texting within San Antonio Texas Police Emergency Reporting
TL;DR: Findings indicate that text messages may be a preferred option in certain types of situations, such as home invasions, where the victim may not be able to speak to calltakers as a matter of protecting personal safety, but the use of text messages is also perceived as creating a potential for delayed police response due to the asynchronous nature of the process.
COGWEB—Cognition and the Web: Social Minds, Distributed Brains, and Talkative Technologies
TL;DR: This special session on Cognition and the Web (COGWEB) features three papers that aim to explore the cognitive significance and relevance of emerging Web technologies.
Gesture cutting through textual complexity: Towards a tool for online gestural analysis and control of complex piano notation processing
TL;DR: This project introduces a recently developed prototype for real-time processing and control of complex piano notation through the pianist’s gesture, drawing from latest developments in the computer music fields of musical representation and of multimodal interaction.

Artificial intelligences as extended minds. Why not
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors defend the view that artificial intelligences can have human-like mental powers, by claiming that both human and artificial minds can be seen as extended minds, along the lines of Chalmers and Clark's view of mind and cognition.
