bodily cognition: towards a knowledge into action

ascend an article extracted here from the blog entirely Fernando Santamaría
http://fernandosantamaria.com/blog


curious thing anecdote is that today just chatted with a group of teachers about learning styles and how they could make relevant kinesthetic as Kinnet technologies, this morning was just a vagary, here with the text of Santamaria and more development context and theory.
Every day the roads of learning more interesting, complex and chaotic.


One of the scientific fields that will have to consider the new interfaces, since the HCI models are the new research about cognition corporeal (Embodied cognition, difficult to translate what we have here is raw thought and action throughout the body . The mind and body are unified in their actions. Luis Suarez told me about "knowledge expressed" and Chiti told me that you can try personified or embodied cognition. I personally am more attracted to the term "bodily cognition" that Antoni rubber band, which from the Department of Psychology, the Universities Illes Balears significant writes a post about it).
will increasingly force in computer science, neurobiology, philosophy (of mind), in the process of artificial intelligence, neural networks aspects and interactions with the environment within the new context of HCI research and own research in neuro and conceptualizations emerging mind / body enactive.
Traditionally, the various branches of cognitive science have considered the mind as an abstract information processor, whose connections with the outside world was of little importance. Currently interactions with the outside world have increased significantly.
Philosophers (mind), scientists cognitive psychologists and artificial intelligence researchers who study cognition and embodied mind, according to the Wikipedia item, believe that the nature of mind is largely determined by how the human body. There is no clear distinction between the mechanism of the mind and cuerpo.Argumentan that all aspects of cognition, such as ideas, thoughts, concepts and categories are determined by aspects of the body. These aspects include the collection system, the intuitions that underlie the ability to move, activities and interactions with the environment and the naive understanding of the world that is built inside the body and into the brain so mutual.
In Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy introduce the concept of bodily cognition as
Cognition program is supported by a growing research in cognitive science that emphasizes the role of environmental education plays in the development of cognitive processes. The general theory holds that cognitive processes are developed as a tightly coupled system shows real-time, the goal-directed interactions between organisms and their environment, the nature of these interactions influences the formation and also in nature of cognitive development. Since corporeal accounts of cognition have been formulated in a variety of different ways in each one of the subfields comprising cognitive science (ie, developmental psychology, artificial life / robotics, linguistics and philosophy of mind), a rich program of interdisciplinary research in emergency. However, all these different conceptions argue that a necessary condition for cognition is the incarnation or embodiment, which extends the basic notion of realization defined as the unique way the sensory ability of an organism that can interact successfully with their niche green. On the other hand, promote the successful adaptation of an organism.
Traditionally, the various branches of cognitive science have considered the mind as an abstract information processor, whose connections with the outside world were of little theoretical importance, collection systems and motor (sensorimotor), though reasonable objects of inquiry in its own right, were not considered relevant for understanding of "central" cognitive processes. Instead, it was thought to serve merely as peripheral input and output. This stance was evident in the first decades of cognitive psychology, when most of the theories of human thinking dealt in propositional form of knowledge. During the same period of time, the artificial intelligence was dominated by processing computer models of abstract symbols. Philosophy of mind, also made his contribution to the spirit of the present age, especially with the hypothesis of modularity of Fodor (1983). According to Fodor, central cognition is not modular, but are its connections with the world. Perception and motor processing are done by information encapsulated in plug-ins, which provide highly limited forms of input and output. Viewpoint
classic cognitivist point of view of embodied cognition / corporeal
1. The computer as a metaphor for the mind, based on rules, driven by logical aspects 1. Coupling metaphor mind / body. Corporeal embodiment forms + setting + limited action in cognitive processes.
2. Analysis isolationist - Cognition can be understood by focusing mainly on internal organizational processes. 2. Relational analysis of interactions between body and environment are studied together to understand cognition.
3. Primacy of the computer 3. Primacy of action that is directed at targets that are developed in real-time.
4. Cognition and passive recovery 4. Active construction of knowledge as based on a set body and all its actions to an end.
5. Symbolic, encoded representations 5. Sensorimotor representations.
bodily cognition is a cognitive theory which posits that certain aspects of our bodies determine our mind. Philosophers, cognitive scientists and artificial intelligence researchers who study cognition and bodily mind believe that the nature of the human mind is determined by how the human body. They argue that all aspects of cognition, such as ideas, thoughts, concepts and categories are shaped by aspects of the body. These include the perceptual system, the intuitions that underlie the ability to move, activities and interactions with our environment and the simple knowledge of the world that is installed in our bodies and brains. The thesis of the corporeal mind is opposed to other theories of cognition, such as cognitivism, the computation and Cartesian dualism. This idea has its roots in Kant and the twentieth-century continental philosophy, as Merleau-Ponty). The modern version is also based on insights provided by recent research in linguistics, cognitive science, artificial intelligence, robotics and neurobiology. George Lakoff (a cognitive scientist and linguist) and his collaborators (including Mark Johnson, Mark Turner, and Rafael E. Núñez) have written several books promoting and expanding the theory based on the findings of cognitive science, such as conceptual metaphor or the image layout.
Researchers in robotics as Rodney Brooks, Hans Moravec and Rolf Pfeifer have argued that true artificial intelligence can only be achieved by machines that have sensory and motor skills and are connected to the world through a body. These ideas have inspired philosophers like Andy Clark and Horst Hendriks-Jansen. The motor theory of speech perception proposed by Alvin Liberman and his colleagues at Haskins Laboratories says that the identification of words is a corporeal perception of body movements that occur with words. Neuroscientists such as Gerald Edelman, Antonio Damasio has pointed out the connection between body, individual brain structures and aspects of the mind as consciousness, emotion, self-consciousness and will.
leaning more and more ubiquitous demonstrations that go beyond the "territory" which was made or even their own environment. Technologies such as augmented reality, and Wii consoles and new Kinect are part of this ecosystem of bodily interaction. And they're very good example of cognition study the body and the ability to create knowledge into action without a central control point, which is called enactive. Very interesting to create learning environments in the context of mobility and action. Haptic learning and games. A learning space without fixed space. A self-healing space autopoietic structures. This layer cognitive learning spaces will be important behind the sensors, hyperlinks and various control devices. The body / mind as manager and disseminator of knowledge. Something that I have raised in her PLE Congress Barcelona (2010) with an ironic presentation of "The body as central to the PLNs.
To explore what we mean by "bodily knowledge" M. Wilson has set up 6 points of view of what is meant by "Embodied Cognition"
1) Cognition is situated. Cognitive activity will be place in a context of a real, and it involves the perception and action.
2) Cognition is pressed for time. As Andy Clark says we are "standing mind" and cognition must be understood in terms of the functions of the way under the pressure of real-time interaction in a specific and contextualized.
3) Worked in the environment without cognitive load. Because of the limits of our information processing capabilities (eg, limits on attention and working memory), which exploit the environment to reduce cognitive workload. We hold that the environment or manipulate information to us filtered environmental.
4) The environment is part of the cognitive system. The flow of information between the mind and the world is so dense and continuous that, for scientists studying the nature of cognitive activity, the mind itself is not a meaningful unit of analysis.
5) Cognition is made for action (first enactive). The function of the mind is to guide action, and cognitive mechanisms such as perception and memory must be understood in terms of their final contribution to the proper conduct in such a situation.
6) The off-line cognition is based on the body. Even when disconnected from the environment, the activity of the mind is based on mechanisms that evolved for interaction with the environment - that is, the mechanisms of sensory processing and motor control.
Often in the literature on embodied cognition some or all of these claims are presented together as if they represented a single point of view. This strategy may have its uses, for example to help draw a convincing picture of what embodied cognition might be and why it might be important. This may have been particularly appropriate at the time that attention first was drawn to this set of ideas, when audiences are not yet familiar with this way of conceptualizing cognition. It is time, however, take a closer look at each of these statements.
Finally, I leave a table that we put into perspective the three traditions of cognitive science in The Embodied Mind: Cognitive Science and Human Experience "and is referenced in the literature:
