Pirbhoy, Patricia Salgado; Farris, Shannon; Steward, Oswald – Learning & Memory, 2017
High-frequency stimulation of the medial perforant path triggers robust phosphorylation of ribosomal protein S6 (rpS6) in activated dendritic domains and granule cell bodies. Here we dissect the signaling pathways responsible for synaptically driven rpS6 phosphorylation in the dentate gyrus using pharmacological agents to inhibit PI3-kinase/mTOR…

Sun, Xin; Marks, Rebecca A.; Zhang, Kehui; Yu, Chi-Lin; Eggleston, Rachel L.; Nickerson, Nia; Chou, Tai-Li; Hu, Xiao-Su; Tardif, Twila; Satterfield, Teresa; Kovelman, Ioulia – Developmental Science, 2023
How do early bilingual experiences influence children's neural architecture for word processing? Dual language acquisition can yield common influences that may be shared across different bilingual groups, as well as language-specific influences stemming from a given language pairing. To investigate these effects, we examined bilingual English…

De Garrido, Luis – Creativity Research Journal, 2022
The main objective of this paper is the conceptual design of a computational AI system that emulates human creativity. To do this, extensive research has been done on recent discoveries about the neural bases of human creativity. As a result, eleven neurocognitive factors have been identified on which the tremendous creative capacity of the human…

Guan, Connie Qun; Smolen, Elaine R. – American Annals of the Deaf, 2022
Sensorimotor integration is an unconscious process of the brain incorporating multiple senses and movement. This review aimed to synthesize the literature on the role of visual-motor integration in language learning, whether spoken or signed, for deaf and hard of hearing (D/HH) children. Nineteen peer-reviewed studies published between 1980 and…

Baram, Tallie Z.; Donato, Flavio; Holmes, Gregory L. – Learning & Memory, 2019
Spatial memory, the aspect of memory involving encoding and retrieval of information regarding one's environment and spatial orientation, is a complex biological function incorporating multiple neuronal networks. Hippocampus-dependent spatial memory is not innate and emerges during development in both humans and rodents. In children,…

Rebora, Anthony – Educational Leadership, 2019
In an interview, educator and psychologist Thomas Armstrong says that schools need to do a better job of speaking to--rather than resisting or crushing--adolescents' neurological development. "Essentially, the curriculum in high school needs to be more affective," he argues. "It needs to be more engaging in terms of humor, vitality,…

Meissner, Nancy A. – ProQuest LLC, 2018
Few projects have combined quantitative and qualitative approaches in the analysis of facilitated communication as did this study of a 17-year-old nonverbal autistic male responding to homework questions using facilitated communication. Findings were consistent with prior studies: Tim was minimally able to produce correct responses independent of…

Yapar Sögüt, Gizem; Yazgan, Yeliz – Acta Didactica Napocensia, 2019
This study aims to evaluate the effects of a non-routine problem solving instruction on the brain hemisphericity of the 7th graders (aged 13-14 years). One sample experimental design was used and twenty-one seventh graders participated in the study. Validated by Kök (2005), Brain Hemisphericity Inventory (BHI) was conducted to the experimental…

Yaple, Zachary; Arsalidou, Marie – Child Development, 2018
The "n"-back task is likely the most popular measure of working memory for functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies. Despite accumulating neuroimaging studies with the "n"-back task and children, its neural representation is still unclear. fMRI studies that used the "n"-back were compiled, and data from…

Aung, Arkar Min; Ramakrishnan, Anand; Whitehill, Jacob R. – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2018
We develop an end-to-end neural network-based computer vision system to automatically identify "where" each person within a 2-D image of a school classroom is looking ("gaze following"), as well as "who" she/he is looking at. Automatic gaze following could help facilitate data-mining of large datasets of…

Blum, Alexander Mario – ProQuest LLC, 2019
Notions of accessibility bring to question the perceived deficits in narrative comprehension for autistic people. This deficit has been positioned as having a cognitive processing disposition towards local coherence, rather than global coherence. Rather than a unitary deficit in the individual, reduced performance on inferential narrative…

Lee, Don Dong-hyun; Cho, Soon-jeong – Asia Pacific Education Review, 2021
For outsiders to higher education institutions (HEIs) in South Korea, predicting the outcomes of the International Education Quality Assurance System (IEQAS)--a Korean institutional accreditation system for HEIs--is challenging. The annual IEQAS accreditation has been conducted behind closed doors; the assessment process is confidential, and there…

Clark, John – Educational Philosophy and Theory, 2018
Increasingly, connections are being made between neuroscience and education. At their interface is the attempt to "bridge the gap between conscious minds and living brains." All too often, the two sides pursue a reductionist strategy of excluding the other. A middle way, promoted by Sankey in the context of values education, is…

De Vos, Astrid; Vanvooren, Sophie; Ghesquière, Pol; Wouters, Jan – Developmental Science, 2020
Auditory processing of temporal information in speech is sustained by synchronized firing of neurons along the entire auditory pathway. In school-aged children and adults with dyslexia, neural synchronization deficits have been found at cortical levels of the auditory system, however, these deficits do not appear to be present in pre-reading…

Spanoudis, George; Demetriou, Andreas – Journal of Intelligence, 2020
The relations between the developing mind and developing brain are explored. We outline a theory of intellectual development postulating that the mind comprises four systems of processes (domain-specific, attention and working memory, reasoning, and cognizance) developing in four cycles (episodic, realistic, rule-based, and principle-based…
