Networks of the Brain
TL;DR: Models of Network Growth All networks, whether they are social, technological, or biological, are the result of a growth process, and many continue to grow for prolonged periods of time, continually modifying their connectivity structure throughout their entire existence.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI
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.

Minds - Extended or Scaffolded
Kim Sterelny,Kim Sterelny +1 more
TL;DR: It is argued that extended mind cases are limiting cases of environmental scaffolding, and while the extended mind picture is not false, the niche construction model is a more helpful framework for understanding human action.

Soft(ware) sculpture : spatial and temporal interventions in audio-visual media
TL;DR: The notion of Soft(ware) Sculpture as discussed by the authors was developed by the author from a re-articulation of expanded arts practices that emerged in the 1960s and 1970s.
Journal Article
Getting From Here to There! : Testing the Effectiveness of an Interactive Mathematics Intervention Embedding Perceptual Learning.
TL;DR: Comparing learning gains from two different instantiations of FH2T (retrieval practice and fluid visualizations), as well as a control group, is compared and the role of prior knowledge and content exposure in FH1T as possible moderators of learning is investigated.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Unlearning before Creating new Knowledge: A Cognitive Process.
TL;DR: This study investigates the unlearning process within the cognitive domain and on an individual level and proposes un learning process triggers that detract or facilitate the knowledge change process, which could subsequently contribute to unlearning on an organizational level.

Revolution, Reform, or Business as Usual? The Future Prospects for Embodied Cognition
Abstract: When all the data and arguments are in, will the recent flurry of work in embodied cognition deliver a revolutionary paradigm shift in the sciences and philosophy of mind? Or will it be a case of business as usual in the mind-targeting laboratories and armchairs around the globe? Or is the most likely outcome a reformist tweak in which embodied cognition research is recognized as making genuine and important methodological or orienting contributions to cognitive science, while leaving the most fundamental conceptual foundations of the field intact – as Rupert nicely puts it in his sobering set of conclusions regarding the revolutionary implications of embodied approaches in general, ‘more of a nudging than a coup’ (Rupert 2009: 242)?
