This course is an introduction to cognitive development focusing on children’s understanding of objects, agents, and causality. It develops a critical understanding of experimental design. The course discusses how developmental research might address philosophical questions about the origins of knowledge, appearance and reality, and the problem of other minds. It provides instruction and practice in written communication as needed for cognitive science research (including critical reviews of journal papers, a literature review and an original research proposal), as well as instruction and practice in oral communication in the form of a poster presentation of a journal paper.

This is a free, open-educational textbook and set of course materials for an introductory undergraduate course in cognition.

The suite is developed using open-source software (R, RStudio, Bookdown). The source code for this project is available at https://github.com/CrumpLab/cognition.

The suite includes:

This textbook: https://www.crumplab.com/cognition/textbook
A course website: https://www.crumplab.com/cognition/
Web-based slide decks for a one semester long course (see course website)
An exam test bank (email mcrump@brooklyn.cuny.edu)

We have plans to continually revise, improve, and add to this suite. In particular, a major stretch goal for the textbook is to embed lab activities in the form of web-based experiment demonstrations, and data-analysis demonstrations. Another goal is to develop tutorials showing others how to copy, use, and/or collaborate on content development.

This text is accessible to anyone interested in the brain. It is specifically targeted to students and instructors of undergraduate neuroscience or biopsychology courses. It encourages an active exploration of the intersection of neuroscience with other disciplines through a large number of activities, demonstrations, reflection prompts, and critical thinking questions. The book complements material presented in more conventional neuroscience or biopsychology textbooks, portions of which are linked to throughout this text.
