Content: The course will have three parts, roughly: Week 1-3: Introduction to (1) the history of Cognitive Science, (2) the Integration challenge and (3) research paradigms and research ethics, conveyed by Dr. Annette Hohenberger. Week 4-13: Each week, a representatives of our various research groups will present their area briefly (45 min impulse lecture) and then discuss questions with the (prepared) audience (45 min moderated discussion). These research groups are Computerlinguistics, Cognitive Modeling, Biologically Oriented Computer Vision, Neurobiopsychology, Comparative BioCognition, Psycho- and Neurolinguistics, Neuroinformatics, Artificial Intelligence, Ethics of Artificial Intelligence; Philosophy of Mind and Cognition, and Situated Affectivity and Cognition.
