Abstract

What do babies know?
What kinds of knowledge are we born with, and what do we learn as young babies? In this class we will discuss everything from why peek-a-boo works so well to the origins of morality. Do babies know the laws of physics -- and how could we tell if they did? Do babies know that some people are nicer than others? Can they do basic math at only 6 months of age?
