p. 15-16
Texte intégral
1This address will first outline a general model of the architecture of the Human mind. This model postulates that the human mind involves four types of systems: (1) Domain-specific systems that specialize in the representation and processing of different types of information in the environment, such as causal, quantitative, and spatial information. (2) A representational workspace that is activated when there is no ready-made solution or interpretation of incoming information. (3) An inferential system that integrates present with extant information vis-a-vis the current goal to produce an acceptable interpretation or solution. (4) A self-monitoring, self-regulation, system that unceasingly monitors the on-line functioning of all systems to make use of the systems own history vis-a-vis the current goal. In so doing this system integrates current feedback in rules and logical principles that are integrated into the future operation of the mind. The address will then summarize the development of each of these systems and their dynamic relations during development. Variations in the functioning of each system function as factors differentiating the individuals in what they can do and learn and their pace of development. We will try to specify the regularities in this differentiation process. The address will end up with a discussion of the implications of this model for education and other theories of the human mind.
