Learning requires effort, but children cannot try hard at everything. Here, we evaluated whether children use their improvement over time to decide whether to stick with a challenge. To eliminate the effect of individual differences in ability or prior knowledge, we created a novel paradigm that allowed us to surreptitiously control children's…

Four simulated populations were created with different connectivity characteristics. Each simulated individual received two attributes, one of them associated to the infection…

Garrett Hardin's "The Tragedy of the Commons" is a classic piece of academic literature in geography and cognate fields. Applying theories of embodied cognition and performance pedagogies, this paper presents a classroom-based activity that can be used to teach the concepts of "The Tragedy of the Commons" in a way that will…
