The goCognitive project provides access to online resources for the teaching and learning of cognitive neuroscience. The project creates new and meaningful web-based teaching contexts within neuroscience education. The web-based project combines interactive demonstrations and laboratory simulations with student-conducted interviews of prominent researchers. The project supplements course materials and provides students with research tools to conduct small-scale, behavioral studies within the classroom context. The project allows students, independent of geographical location, to experience prominent researchers in the field of cognitive neuroscience through video materials. The project builds on the results of a project supported by the Idaho State Board of Education. Information from a needs assessment informs the on-going development of the website and resources that are tailored to the needs of faculty teaching neuroscience and students who are learning neuroscience. The project draws on and combines expertise in cognitive neuroscience/cognitive psychology and in the development of web-based instructional products to produce project materials. Evaluation includes web-metrics to assess usage, course-based evaluations to assess and document classroom instruction, evaluation activities to test the efficacy and impact of project resources. The evaluation of the project has the potential to inform the design and implementation of the evaluation of web-based resources in educational settings.

goCognitive 项目提供对认知神经科学教学和学习的在线资源的访问。 该项目在神经科学教育中创建了新的、有意义的基于网络的教学环境。 这个基于网络的项目将交互式演示和实验室模拟与学生对著名研究人员的采访结合起来。 该项目补充了课程材料，并为学生提供了在课堂背景下进行小规模行为研究的研究工具。 该项目允许学生，不受地理位置的限制，通过视频材料体验认知神经科学领域的杰出研究人员。该项目建立在爱达荷州教育委员会支持的项目成果的基础上。 来自需求评估的信息为网站和资源的持续开发提供了信息，这些网站和资源是根据教授神经科学的教师和学习神经科学的学生的需求而定制的。 该项目利用并结合了认知神经科学/认知心理学以及基于网络的教学产品开发的专业知识来制作项目材料。评估包括用于评估使用情况的网络指标、用于评估和记录课堂教学的基于课程的评估、用于测试项目资源的功效和影响的评估活动。该项目的评估有可能为教育环境中网络资源评估的设计和实施提供信息。
