Shaping Reality through Mental Rehearsal.
Previous research has shown that mental rehearsal can improve performance. A new study by Vyas et al. (2018) reveals that direct modulation of neural dynamics using a brain-computer interface can also modify physical movements. The study further demonstrates that "mental practice" and physical movements share a common neural subspace.
متن کاملBeyond Manzanar: Constructing Meaning in Interactive Virtual Reality
Beyond Manzanar is an interactive 3D virtual reality artwork. It is written in VRML and runs off the hard drive of a fast gaming PC. It is shown as a room installation with the image projected life-sized on a large screen. One user at a time can navigate through the 3D environment in first-person viewpoint using a simple joystick; other can watch and share the experience. The piece explores par...
متن کاملConstructing Meaning
This article reviews cognitive neuroscience research on visual and language processing to suggest an analogy between the neural interpolation mechanisms in perceptual processing and the constructive processes that underlie meaning construction in language. Traditional models of language comprehension as a decoding process are argued to involve an overattribution of the import of linguistic info...

Design-based research studies are conducted as iterative implementationanalysis-modification cycles, in which emerging theoretical models and pedagogically plausible activities are reciprocally tuned toward each other as a means of investigating conjectures pertaining to mechanisms underlying content teaching and learning. Yet this approach, even when resulting in empirically effective educatio...
