In the first week, in the light of <strong>classic and contemporary cognitive models<\/strong>, we discuss <strong>how memory systems (sensory, short-term, long-term) function, how we encode and store information and why we are frequently mistaken<\/strong>. We examine the \u201c<strong>cognitive architecture of remembering<\/strong>\u201d on a line extending to <strong>neurocognitive <\/strong>frameworks such as <strong>from source monitoring errors to reconstructed memories, from working memory to predictive processing<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">In the second week, we move our focus beyond the boundaries of individual <strong>memory <\/strong>and turn to <strong>self<\/strong>, <strong>culture <\/strong>and <strong>social <\/strong>environment. We address <strong>the role of autobiographical memory in identity construction, how cultural contexts highlight which memories<\/strong> and how <strong>belonging and identities<\/strong> are established through <strong>collective memory <\/strong>and narratives. With the rise of the <strong>digital age <\/strong>we discuss the <strong>cognitive <\/strong>and <strong>cultural <\/strong>consequences of <strong>\u201ccognitive offloading\u201d<\/strong>, that is, the practices of offloading remembering to devices (Google, screenshots, photos, social media archives).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">In the third week, we address the forms of <strong>forgetting<\/strong> and <strong>distortion<\/strong> in the digital age by focusing on the <strong>effects<\/strong> of <strong>false memories<\/strong>, <strong>misinformation effect, algorithmic recall<\/strong>, and <strong>social media<\/strong> posts on <strong>memory<\/strong>. By the end of these three weeks, participants will be able to evaluate <strong>memory's cognitive<\/strong>, <strong>social<\/strong>, and <strong>cultural<\/strong> levels, especially in the context of social media and digital platforms, <strong>with a critical and holistic perspective<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">Our instructor <strong>Ezgi Bilgin<\/strong> is a final-year <strong>PhD student<\/strong> at <strong>Cornell University Department of Psychology<\/strong> and continues her work at the Culture and Cognition Laboratory. Having completed her <strong>graduate<\/strong> education in <strong>cognitive psychology at Ko\u00e7 University<\/strong>, <strong>Ezgi Bilgin<\/strong> focuses on the effects of the internet and social media on memory in her research, examining how digital platforms reshape the processes of <strong>remembering<\/strong> and <strong>forgetting<\/strong> and the cognitive and cultural mechanisms underlying these processes. Alongside her academic studies, Ezgi Bilgin is a passionate runner, and one of her dreams is to run the Boston Marathon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Week 1: Cognitive Processes of Remembering (January 6):<\/em><\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Topics:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Memory systems (sensory, short-term, long-term)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Processes of encoding, storing, and retrieving information<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The fallible nature of memory: source monitoring errors and reconstruction<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Lesson Objective:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The objective of this lesson is to ensure participants grasp the structure of human memory, its modes of operation, and how it is organized through cognitive processes.
