    The learning model that can be an innovation in learning to support the achievement of learning objectives is cooperative learning with the Think Pair Share type. The application of this model certainly needs to be supported by the use of media which will have a good impact on student learning outcomes. One of the media that can be used is Edpuzzle. This study aims to determine the effect of Think Pair Share (TPS) learning on student learning outcomes in class XI MIPA SMAS Kartika XIX-1 Bandung, especially in the matter of the respiratory system. The method used is Quasi Experimental with a non-equivalent group research design. The populations of the study were students of class XI MIPA at SMAS Kartika XIX-1 Bandung. Two classes were taken, XI MIPA 2 and XI MIPA 3 using purposive sampling technique. Analysis of research data obtained an average student learning outcomes in the experimental class with an average pretest score of 36.29, a posttest of 65.29 with an N-Gain value of 0.45 in the medium category. Hypothetical data using the Man Whitney test shows the value of Sig. 0.04 < 0.05 indicates that H1 is accepted. Based on the results of the study it can be concluded that the Think Pair Share (TPS) learning model assisted by Edpuzzle media has a positive effect on student learning outcomes in the respiratory system material and further enhances student learning outcomes

    Electrocortical components of anticipation and consumption in a monetary incentive delay task

    In order to improve our understanding of the components that reflect functionally important processes during reward anticipation and consumption, we used principle components analyses (PCA) to separate and quantify averaged ERP data obtained from each stage of a modified monetary incentive delay (MID) task. Although a small number of recent ERP studies have reported that reward and loss cues potentiate ERPs during anticipation, action preparation, and consummatory stages of reward processing, these findings are inconsistent due to temporal and spatial overlap between the relevant electrophysiological components. Our results show three components following cue presentation are sensitive to incentive cues (N1, P3a, P3b). In contrast to previous research, reward‐related enhancement occurred only in the P3b, with earlier components more sensitive to break‐even and loss cues. During feedback anticipation, we observed a lateralized centroparietal negativity that was sensitive to response hand but not cue type. We also show that use of PCA on ERPs reflecting reward consumption successfully separates the reward positivity from the independently modulated feedback‐P3. Last, we observe for the first time a new reward consumption component: a late negativity distributed over the left frontal pole. This component appears to be sensitive to response hand, especially in the context of monetary gain. These results illustrate that the time course and sensitivities of electrophysiological activity that follows incentive cues do not follow a simple heuristic in which reward incentive cues produce enhanced activity at all stages and substages

    Probing neural mechanisms underlying auditory stream segregation in humans by transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS)

    One hypothesis concerning the neural underpinnings of auditory streaming states that frequency tuning of tonotopically organized neurons in primary auditory fields in combination with physiological forward suppression is necessary for the separation of representations of high-frequency A and low-frequency B tones. The extent of spatial overlap between the tonotopic activations of A and B tones is thought to underlie the perceptual organization of streaming sequences into one coherent or two separate streams. The present study attempts to interfere with these mechanisms by transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) and to probe behavioral outcomes reflecting the perception of ABAB streaming sequences. We hypothesized that tDCS by modulating cortical excitability causes a change in the separateness of the representations of A and B tones, which leads to a change in the proportions of one-stream and two-stream percepts. To test this, 22 subjects were presented with ambiguous ABAB sequences of three different frequency separations (∆F) and had to decide on their current percept after receiving sham, anodal, or cathodal tDCS over the left auditory cortex. We could confirm our hypothesis at the most ambiguous ∆F condition of 6 semitones. For anodal compared with sham and cathodal stimulation, we found a significant decrease in the proportion of two-stream perception and an increase in the proportion of one-stream perception. The results demonstrate the feasibility of using tDCS to probe mechanisms underlying auditory streaming through the use of various behavioral measures. Moreover, this approach allows one to probe the functions of auditory regions and their interactions with other processing stages

    NEURODYNAMICS OF CATEGORY LEARNING: TOWARDS UNDERSTANDING THE CREATION OF MEANING IN THE BRAIN

    No full text
    Category learning, the formation and use of categories (equivalence classes of meaning), is an elemental function of cognition. We report our approach to study the physiological mechanisms underlying category learning using high-density multi-channel recordings of electrocorticograms in rodents. These data suggest the coexistence of separate coding principles for representing physical stimulus attributes ("stimulus representation") and subjectively relevant information (meaning) about stimuli, respectively. The implications of these findings for the construction of interactive cortical sensory neuroprostheses are discussed.Cortical dynamics, category learning, neuroprostheses
