EMBODIED COGNITION
Component: Lecture
An examination of the thesis that cognition is not sandwiched between the perceptual input and motor output systems, but is spread across the sensory-motor system. This thesis breaks with classical cognitivism’s claim that cognition performs computations on symbols, without regard to the sensory system or the motor system.
