There is no trait that we value in society in quite the same way that we value intelligence. Schools go to great lengths to identify children with intelligence. The tutoring industry is built on increasing intelligence. There are even social clubs where being a member means you have to have a certain level of intelligence! In each of these instances a person’s intelligence is being measured by their IQ score, but is that an accurate reflection of their intelligence? Given that IQ is affected by various factors outside of our control, is IQ an accurate measure of a person’s intelligence, or a measure of their situation? Is it possible that intelligence, measured or real, has to do more with the way we think than what we know? This week’s discussion is about intelligence--how we measure it, how we value it, and to think differently about the concept.
