Interactive 3D Brain Helps You Learn How the Brain is Organized

Gesturing with an injured brain: how gesture helps children with early brain injury learn linguistic constructions.

Children with pre/perinatal unilateral brain lesions (PL) show remarkable plasticity for language development. Is this plasticity characterized by the same developmental trajectory that characterizes typically developing (TD) children, with gesture leading the way into speech? We explored this question, comparing eleven children with PL - matched to thirty TD children on expressive vocabulary -...

How do you wire a brain?

Cerebral cortex is generally thought to provide the neural basis for higher cognitive and perceptual functions (see Gazzaniga et al., 2008). In cerebral cortex, billions of individual neurons, the functional units of cortex, are interconnected via a massive yet highly organized network of axonal and dendritic wiring. This wiring enables both near and distant neurons to coordinate their response...

I learn from you, you learn from me: How to make iList learn from students

We developed a new model for iList, our system that helps students learn linked list. The model is automatically extracted from past student data, and allows iList to track students’ problem-solving behavior in order to provide targeted feedback. We evaluated the new model both intrinsically and extrinsically. We show that the model can match most student actions after a relatively small sequen...
