At #CogSci2024, Jori Blankestijn, a developer and UX researcher, presented a poster on using a data-driven approach to enhance learning. He collaborated with the University of Groningen and Noordhoff to improve education through innovative, data-driven methods.

And that's a wrap for #CogSci2024

Thank you to all the brilliant minds, speakers, and attendees who made this event unforgettable.

We can't wait to see you all next year in San Francisco 🌉 🇺🇸 for #CogSci2025 👋 😉 #SeeYouNextYear

Harshada Vinaya presenting great work on distributional and sensorimotor ERP effects during property verification.
And all despite the sounds of carnival coming through the window behind 😀 #cogsci2024

Anna Borghi opens the session on abstract concepts, with a shoutout to the recent consensus paper lead by @jamiereillycog.bsky.social #cogsci2024

Alison Gopnik opened her Rumelhart prize talk at #CogSci2024 with these words:
"There is no such thing as general intelligence, natural or artificial". Brilliant!
And she went on with examining the 3-layered model of dynamic cognition:
Explore,
Exploit,
Empower.

Not me who came back to his #CogSci2024 poster today after grabbing a coffee, saw someone standing there, asked if I can give her a walkthrough, she said “Of course I can give you a walkthrough”, and then I realized that I had gone to the wrong poster 🙈

Not the “we didn’t fall out of a coconut tree” line during the Rumelhart Keynote #CogSci2024 😂😂🥥🌴
