PGR Workshop - Formal Models of Cognition: Applications in Mathematical Cognition

IAS Residential Fellow Dr David William Braithwaite delivers a workshop for Postgraduate Researchers (PGRs) -

This workshop will be led by David Braithwaite, Associate Professor of Cognitive and Developmental Psychology at Florida State University. Dr Braithwaite will describe how formal (mathematical or computational) models can contribute to our understanding of psychological processes. He will focus on case studies from his own experience, touching on topics such as how example variation affects concept learning, children’s understanding of fractions, and children’s error patterns in fraction and decimal arithmetic. Then, he will lead discussion of how such approaches could be used by attendees to advance their own research agendas.

Arrivals from 1:45pm for a 2:00pm start.
