Cognitive Technology: Instruments of Mind Cognitive Technology is the study of the impact of technology on human cog- tion, the externalization of technology from the human mind, and the pragmatics of tools. It promotes the view that human beings should develop methods to p- dict, analyse, and optimize aspects of human-tool relationship in a manner that respects human wholeness. In particular the development of new tools such as virtual environments, new computer devices, and software tools has been too little concerned with the impacts these technologies will have on human cog- tive and social capacities. Our tools change what we are and how we relate to the world around us. They need to be developed in a manner that both extends human capabilities while ensuring an appropriate cognitive t between organism and instrument. The principal theme of the CT 2001 conference and volume is declared in its title: Instruments of Mind. Cognitive Technology is concerned with the interaction between two worlds: that of the mind and that of the machine. In science and engineering, this - teraction is often explored by posing the question: how can technology be best tailored to human cognition? But as the history of technological developments has consistently shown, cognition is also fashioned by technology. Technologies as diverse as writing, electricity generation, and the silicon chip all illustrate the profound and dynamic impact of technology upon ourselves and our conceptions of the world.
This book constiutes the reviewed proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Cognitive Technology, CT 2001, helds in Warwick, UK in August 2001. The 36 revised full papers presented together with six invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in the book. The book offers topical sections on designing artefacts, cognition in robotic and virtual environments, presence in virtual environments, human activity and humnan computing, computing and people education in cognition, learning, narrative and story-telling, interfaces, cognitive dimensions, human work and communities, and human-technology relationship.
