Deep dives

Expanding the Notion of Intelligence

Intelligence is more than just IQ scores and standardized tests. The traditional view of intelligence is limited and fails to capture the full range of human abilities. This has led to a narrow focus on academic performance and a disregard for other important skills like creativity, practicality, and wisdom. By expanding the concept of intelligence to include these additional dimensions, we can better understand and measure human potential.
