Issues in the Comparative Cognition of Abstract-Concept Learning.
-concept learning, including same/different and matching-to-sample concept learning, provides the basis for many other forms of "higher" cognition. The issue of which species can learn abstract concepts and the extent to which abstract-concept learning is expressed across species is discussed. Definitive answers to this issue are argued to depend on the subjects' learning strategy (e.g., a rela...
متن کاملMatching-to-sample abstract-concept learning by pigeons.
Abstract concepts--rules that transcend training stimuli--have been argued to be unique to some species. Pigeons, a focus of much concept-learning research, were tested for learning a matching-to-sample abstract concept. Five pigeons were trained with three cartoon stimuli. Pigeons pecked a sample 10 times and then chose which of two simultaneously presented comparison stimuli matched the sampl...
متن کاملSame/different abstract-concept learning by pigeons.
Eight pigeons were trained and tested in a simultaneous same/different task. After pecking an upper picture, they pecked a lower picture to indicate same or a white rectangle to indicate different. Increases in the training set size from 8 to 1,024 items produced improved transfer from 51.3% to 84.6%. This is the first evidence that pigeons can perform a two-item same/different task as accurate...
متن کاملTeaching approaches to Computer Assisted Language Learning
Computers have been used for language teaching ever since the 1960's.Learning a second language is a challenging endeavor, and, for decades now, proponents of computer assisted language learning (CALL) have declared that help is on the horison. We investigate the suitability of deploying speech technology in computer based systems that can be used to teach foreign language skills. In this case,...
متن کاملLearning from architects: complementary concept mapping approaches
Forschungsplattform Alexandria https://www.alexandria.unisg.ch | 29.01.2016 The research scope in concept mapping research can be extended with the investigation of complementary concept mapping approaches which are visual representations that complement the classical node link diagrams from Novak. To do so, concept mapping researchers can draw inspiration from architects. This article presents...
