Not sure what you mean
@asehelene. Do you mean people tend to associate "TM" with desktop computer and think of computational theory of mind as 'metaphor'? -
Yes, very much so. Hence ”hardwired” etc. but my sense also, teaching masters, is they have zero background on algorithms, standard logic, etc. going thru the cog revolution including Turing is new to them.

Coming from UG psych?

Yes- internationally. I did cog psy in early 90 and had to learn c ++ Lisp and fid neural nets, some non linesr dynamics and math and logic in addition. Hard to find common ground for teaching theoretical aspects.
-
I always thought psy needed more formal things (I purdued it voluntarily) but it hasn’t happened. Very smart students, but formsl aspects still not huge part.

For a brief moment, I thought you had verbed Purdue University. :-)

Crap - I really do know how to spell, usually. Just not on the damned i-phone
