Topics include the mental and neural bases of perception, emotion, learning, memory, cognition, child development, personality, psychopathology, and social interaction. Students will consider how such knowledge relates to debates about nature and nurture, free will, consciousness, human differences, self, and society.<br clear="both" style="clear: both;"/> <br clear="both" style="clear: both;"/> <a href="http://ads.pheedo.com/click.phdo?s=c28c27c3ead63697305bb270b3d69923&p=1"><img alt="" style="border: 0;" border="0" src="http://ads.pheedo.com/img.phdo?s=c28c27c3ead63697305bb270b3d69923&p=1"/></a> <img alt="" height="0" width="0" border="0" style="display:none" src="http://tags.bluekai.com/site/5148"/> http://www.pheedcontent.com/click.phdo?i=c28c27c3ead63697305bb270b3d69923 http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/brain-and-cognitive-sciences/9-00sc-introduction-to-psychology-fall-2011 Gabrieli, John 2012-05-01T14:18:05+05:00 9.00SC en-US psychology brain vision attention consciousness learning memory language thinking intelligence emotion personality human development stress psychopathology social psychology MIT OpenCourseWare http://ocw.mit.edu Content within individual OCW courses is (c) by the individual authors unless otherwise noted.

Our primary goal is for you to learn to appreciate and use the fundamental design principles of modularity and abstraction in a variety of contexts from electrical engineering and computer science. Our second goal is to show you that making mathematical models of real systems can help in the design and analysis of those systems. Finally, we have the more typical goals of teaching exciting and important basic material from electrical engineering and computer science, including modern software engineering, linear systems analysis, electronic circuits, and decision-making.<br clear="both" style="clear: both;"/> <br clear="both" style="clear: both;"/> <a href="http://ads.pheedo.com/click.phdo?s=3da84707347179a41e8517f6407c84a3&p=1"><img alt="" style="border: 0;" border="0" src="http://ads.pheedo.com/img.phdo?s=3da84707347179a41e8517f6407c84a3&p=1"/></a> <img alt="" height="0" width="0" border="0" style="display:none" src="http://tags.bluekai.com/site/5148"/> http://www.pheedcontent.com/click.phdo?i=3da84707347179a41e8517f6407c84a3 http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/electrical-engineering-and-computer-science/6-01sc-introduction-to-electrical-engineering-and-computer-science-i-spring-2011 Kaelbling, Leslie White, Jacob Abelson, Harold Freeman, Dennis Lozano-Pérez, Tomás Chuang, Isaac 2012-02-13T15:10:04+05:00 6.01SC en-US Python programming object-oriented programming state machines signals and systems linear time-invariant LTI poles circuits op-amps Thevenin Norton superposition probability state estimation search algorithms MIT OpenCourseWare http://ocw.mit.edu Content within individual OCW courses is (c) by the individual authors unless otherwise noted.
