Spelke (Harvard University), 4 pm on Thursday Dec 14 Dear all, The CEU Department of Cognitive Science invites you to the following talk: Elisabeth S. Spelke (Harvard University) From the lab to the field and back: Toward a synergy between research in developmental cognitive science and in the economics of education In developing countries like India, almost all children attend school, but many fail to learn up to their potential. In this talk, I ask two questions. First, can basic research in developmental cognitive science contribute to efforts to address this problem and promote Indian children’s learning in school? Second, can field research, using randomized designs to evaluate the impacts of curricula that aim to promote such children’s learning, such as the curricula tested in India, contribute to efforts, in developmental cognitive science, to gain a better understanding of human minds and how they grow and learn? Date: Thursday, Dec 14, 2023 Time: 4 pm (to 5:30 pm) CET Venue: D001* (QS Vienna) and Zoom (meeting ID: 969 2496 5784<https://ceu-edu.zoom.us/j/96924965784?pwd=c2duZ0dDMFdEMUthK2Mwa2wzMllEUT09>, passcode: 471712) Chair: Gergley Csibra *Anyone not affiliated with CEU wishing to attend in-person in Vienna must RSVP here<https://forms.microsoft.com/e/UqAWQUWy7T> to get access to the lecture hall.
