A divided-attention timed stepping accuracy task as a procedural learning intervention improves balance and functional performance in healthy older adults
… how training with a task that provides a procedural learning environment can affect balance and functional outcomes. The divided-attention timed stepping accuracy task required participants to step to and from 16 targets in a random order as quickly and accurately as possible. The physical …

An examination of the employment of the pair programming methodology as a collaborative instructional scaffold on college student procedural learning and programming self-beliefs
… instructional scaffold on student programming procedural knowledge and programming-related self-beliefs in an introductory computer programming course offered at a large university located in the Midwestern United States. Employing a design research theoretical perspective in a natural …

How Humans solve Scheduling Problems: Analysis of Human Behavior in the Plan-A-Day Task
… of scheduling behavior. The PAD task permits learning at a declarative as well as on a procedural level. Declarative learning in the PAD domain can conceptualized as the accumulation of experience about the feasibility of partial schedules. An 'explorative pattern” is defined which …

Instructional Design Guidelines for Procedural Instruction Delivered via Augmented Reality
… provide cognitive and psychomotor support during procedural learning and has been shown to use both words and pictures when delivering instructional content. A set of message design guidelines, created using a design and development research approach, can be used by novice designers to effectively …

An Approach to Identify Effective Learning Outcomes for a Training Program
… to enable multidimensional categorization of learning outcomes in a lifting and lowering training program. The learning outcomes of interest in such a training program relate to procedural knowledge and the cognitive process involved are categorized as remembering, understanding, applying, and …

The Effects of Untreated and Treated Obstructive Sleep Apnoea on Subjective Sleepiness, Microsleeps, Simulated Driving Performance and Neurocognitive Functioning
… OSA patients demonstrated a lowered capacity for procedural learning. The current study also found that following CPAP treatment, OSA patients improved on measures of sustained attention, reaction time, simulated driving performance, memory and procedural learning. Findings of the present study …

Conceptual and Procedural Instruction: Mathematical Teaching Approaches And Strategies In An Urban Middle School
… the educators characterized conceptual and procedural math teaching methods, while in answer to the second question, the instructors answered questions on teaching strategies and pedagogies that help improve the quality of math instruction at the middle school level. Twelve math educators …

Primordial Mental Activity: Archetypal Constellations in Mystical Experiences and in the Creative Processes of Psychotic Patients
… Accumulating information by implicit and procedural learning, PMA is expressed in enactments and actualisations. For its reliance in interrelationships for the learning of attribution of meaning to experiences, PMA depends on a non-logical approach to subject-object relations, …

Agent problem solving by inductive and deductive program synthesis
… two types of concepts, declarative knowledge and procedural knowledge: know-what and know-how. While much work has focused on unsupervised learning of declarative concepts as clusters of features, there is much less clarity on the representation for procedural concepts and the methods for learning …

Collaborative Learning with a Geometry Video Game: The Role of Elaboration and Game Design in Motivation and Learning
… effects of a new game mechanic on collaborative learning and mathematical discourse when playing a digital geometry puzzle game. For this study, two new versions of the game “Noobs vs. Leets” were developed. Both versions of the game teach the concepts of complementary and supplementary angles …

Intercultural training for international placements
… training success by looking at the cognitive learning processes in intercultural training, relating them to training goals, and by examining the short- and long-term transfer of intercultural training into real-life encounters with people from other cultures. Two cognitive trainings based on …

Modeling the role of the basal ganglia in motor control and motor programming
… the model can simulate important features of procedural learning in human experiments. At the same time, it can be shown that derangement of the winner-take-all dynamics could underlie the tremor and rigidity seen in Parkinson's disease.

Genetic and behavioral discrimination of dopamine 1 and 5 receptors in hippocampal dependent memory consolidation
… addiction. The role of DA in working memory and procedural learning is also well established. DA is a ubiquitous neurotransmitter that affects much of the brain, but very little is known how dopamine functions in hippocampal dependent learning. It was only until recently that dopamine-containing …

Simultaneous activation of multiple memory systems during learning : insights from electrophysiology and modeling
… and how their neural activities evolve during learning. To address these issues, single-unit activity was recorded simultaneously in dorsolateral (sensorimotor) and dorsomedial (associative) regions of the striatum as rats learned two versions of a conditional T-maze task. The results …

Teaching the Unknowable: Does Analogy Lead to Implicit Skill Acquisition in a Dart-Throwing Task?
… was conducted to examine the hypothesis that learning by analogy will invoke characteristics of an implicit mode of learning. On Day 1, dart novices learned to throw darts as close as possible to the centre of a target under one of three scenarios: control (without instruction), implicit …
