Cognition {Cognition}

I consider that learning cognitive science
was the second best decision only after learning computer science
and yet, arguably, it could be a consequence of the first.

  • Un role de consultant ne se limite par a une expertise technique mais vise a faciliter la resolution d'un probleme complexe. Un probleme qui n'est pas resolu seul mais par un ensemble de professionels et chaque, avec une facon de penser qui lui est propre, c'est meme pour cela qu'il est employe. Les avancees en sciences cognitives etudient precisement les mechanismes de pense, la resolution de probleme, les interactions entre modeles, entre outils. Les sciences cognitives sont donc un outil important pour tout travail fonde sur l'exploitation des connaissances.
    • Your Brain At Work by David Rock
    • the brain is a tool
      • most likely the most important tool you have
      • learn how to use it efficiently
      • understand how it works
