Module 1: Introduction to Cognitive Science This module offers a comprehensive overview of cognitive science, exploring its interdisciplinary nature and historical development. Students will examine how cognitive science integrates psychology, neuroscience, linguistics, philosophy, and computer science to study the mind and its processes. The module introduces key theoretical frameworks and methodologies used in cognitive science research, emphasizing their applications in understanding human cognition, behavior, and decision-making.

Module 2: Perception and Attention Students explore how the brain processes sensory information and allocates attention. Topics include sensory modalities, perceptual organization, and selective attention mechanisms. Through discussions and case studies, students gain insights into how perception influences cognitive processes and behavior, examining theoretical models and empirical research in cognitive psychology and neuroscience. Practical exercises enhance understanding of perceptual phenomena and attentional mechanisms in various contexts.

Module 3: Memory and Learning This module covers human memory systems and learning processes. Topics include types of memory (sensory, short-term, long-term), memory formation, encoding, storage, retrieval, and factors affecting memory performance. Case studies illustrate applications of memory and learning theories in education, cognitive enhancement, and decision-making. Students explore how these concepts contribute to understanding cognitive functions and practical implications in everyday life.
