Libertarian Free Will
  • Level Foundation
  • المدة
  • الطبع بواسطة Dartmouth College
  • Offered by

عن

Yes, we have free will! This Specialization will explore Libertarian Free Will and discuss philosophical arguments and neuroscientific evidence for and against its existence. In this Specialization, we will dismantle arguments against free will, both from a philosophical and neuroscientific perspective. In supporting free will, we will tour philosophy, physics and neuroscience. We will rethink the neural code and discover that evolution has discovered a middle path between determinism and chance. We will learn about the amplification of quantum domain indeterminism up to a level of indeterminacy in neural spike timing. We will see that outcomes that arise from internal operations in working memory, that afford imagination and deliberations about the future, can alter probabilities of future courses of action. I will argue that evolution has instantiated these conditions necessary for Libertarian Free Will in our brains. Indeed, evolution has afforded us two kinds of Libertarian Free Will, one that we share with other animals, namely, the ability to weigh and select from among internally simulated options, and the other, unique to humans, namely, the capacity to imagine and then set about becoming of a new kind of chooser in the future.

Auto Summary

Embark on an intellectual journey through the intriguing concept of Libertarian Free Will with this comprehensive course in the domain of Personal Development. Designed to challenge and expand your understanding, this course delves into the philosophical and neuroscientific arguments surrounding the existence of free will. Guided by an expert from Coursera, the course systematically dismantles arguments against free will and supports its existence through a multidimensional approach, encompassing philosophy, physics, and neuroscience. You will explore how the neural code interacts with quantum indeterminism and how evolution has potentially bridged the gap between determinism and chance. The course offers a deep dive into how our brains may have evolved to support free will, presenting evidence that humans possess a unique capacity for imagination and deliberation that can influence future actions. This exploration not only covers capabilities shared with other animals but also highlights the distinctly human ability to envision and strive toward becoming a new kind of decision-maker. Although the course duration is not specified, it is designed at a foundational level, making it accessible to beginners. Subscriptions are available through the Starter option, ensuring that learners can begin their journey into the complexities of free will without prior extensive knowledge. Ideal for those with an interest in personal development, philosophy, neuroscience, or cognitive science, this course promises to provide a thought-provoking and enriching learning experience.

  • Offered by

عن

This specialization combines the strength of 4 different neuroscience courses into a cohesive learning experience. Taught by Johns Hopkins University, it begins with fundamental neuroscience concepts for neuroimaging. Neuroimaging methods are used with increasing frequency in clinical practice and basic research. Starting with the neuroanatomy of the brain, it then moves into principles of neuroimaging, including experimental design in neuroimaging, functional connectivity MRI, diffusion tensor imaging and spectroscopy imaging. The specialization then continues with two courses that focus on Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging, one of the most widely used techniques for investigating the living, functioning human brain as people perform tasks and experience mental states, and a convergence point for multidisciplinary work. To conclude, the specialization moves into implementation of neurohacking using the R programming language, with the associated packages to perform data manipulation, processing, and analysis of neuroimaging data, using publicly available structural MRI.

Auto Summary

This neuroscience specialization by Johns Hopkins University on Coursera is perfect for those in personal development seeking a professional-level understanding. It covers fundamental neuroscience concepts, neuroanatomy, neuroimaging principles, and advanced techniques like fMRI. The course also includes practical neurohacking using R programming.
