Should Genius Kids Know Their IQs?
It's been a while since I have written, but i figured I would share this article because I think that it raises some good points. What exactly does it mean to "gifted" or above average how does it affect their performances, academically as well as socially?
I think that self fulfilling prophecies should be co
nsidered. Additionally, I think that the article brings up the point of Gardner's Theories of Multiple Intellegence- which I support, despite it's controvercy. I beleive that people, and children excel in multiple areas and this area is not always academic. Also, academic "smarts" are not always the best kind to have. Interesting to think about.
Any thoughts?
