SMALL OVERTURE
What distinguishes good from bad thinking? ... How to improve
thinking? His thinking? Thinking at all? ...For more than two
thousand years, many of the best minds in philosophy, logic,
psychology, pedagogy, trying to find answers to these
questions. The history of these efforts, brilliant ideas and
the enormous labor expended on research and creative discussion
is a vivid, dramatic picture.
Max Wertheimer
The book is intended for anyone who wants to streamline and
improve your mind. It is addressed to the knowledge workers of
all professions and specialties: designers and educators,
technologists and doctors, agronomists and mathematicians,
biologists and economists, psychologists and oilmen, physicists
and programmers, and so on. D.
He who briefly flipped through it, one might get the false
impression that it is devoted to computers and programming. In
fact it is not. It is not a thinking machine, but about people
thinking about the mysteries and peculiarities of human
cognition and intelligence. About mysterious traps and pitfalls
that lie in wait for us in the difficult navigation on the
boundless seas everyday mental work. For information on how to
find salvation lighthouse and come to the goal by the shortest
route.
The book proposes a new universal means to facilitate and
improve the work of the mind, which can be used in many, almost
all areas of mental activity. In itself, this tool does not have
any relation to computers. Therefore, it can be successfully
applied and those who do not like computers, treats them with
suspicion or apprehension. You will need a pencil, paper and
nothing more. In short, this tool is quite useful for
improvement of the most common (beskompyuternoy) mental work.
However, fans of computer would benefit even more, since the
said means can serve as the basis for a powerful new information
technology as part of the next generation of information
technology - cognitive information technologies.
Perhaps, the book falls into the hands of the reader, who would
like to improve his mind, but that scare or annoy words such as
"algorithm", "software", "formalization". This grief is not
difficult to help. Now we compose comic dictionary that although
violates all canons of scientific rigor, but it is
understandable for beginners.
Frivolous dictionary
Algorithm - a precise description of solving the problem, which
leads to victory Algorithm - accurately describe the sequence of
human actions Algorithm - an accurate and complete description
of the work (activity) that allows other people to repeat this
activity photographically accurate, without any deviation, and
get the desired result Visual algorithm - an algorithm, the
image is not as text, but as a visual image Visualization
Algorithms - conversion algorithm, which is recorded as a bad
and incomprehensible text into a good and clear picture The
cognitive - informative. It is an awkward word to remember, as
it will come across at every turn The program - a sequence of
actions that people are too lazy to carry out himself, and
therefore requests the computer or robot Formal - detailed A
formal description - an accurate, unambiguous and complete
description, devoid of gaps and ambiguities Formalizing -
turning the ordinary (poor) to describe the formal (nice)
Avtoformalizatsiya - is when a person performs a formalization
itself, without resorting to the help of friends, relatives and
bystanders The formalization of activities - an exact
description of the rules by which the activity is performed.
During the formalization of activities should be split into
separate steps, indicate the sequence of their execution, as
well as the conditions under which (or not done) every action.
As a result of the formalization description of the activity is
transformed into an algorithm Algorithmization - the same thing
that the formalization of activities Algorithmization - making
order in the realm of anarchy, eliminating confusion and
sloppiness, prompting technological discipline Algorithmization
- the process of creating an algorithm Ergonomics - the science
of how to turn a complex, difficult and nasty work in simple,
easy and pleasant Cognitive ergonomics - the science of how to
facilitate and improve the mental work Ergonomizatsiya science -
facilitating and improving research activities Ergonomizatsiya
education - facilitating and improving training activities
