IA: Intellectual Ability
Intellectual Ability is, defined simply, what one is able to do with his or her brain. All students have different intellectual abilities in a number of different fields. For example, some students may excel in mathematics, while others are astounding writers. Also, some students may be able to think creatively, while others think logically. It is important for educators to identify and cater to different intellectual abilities in their students.
Intelligence Quotient (IQ): This little thing is a score derived from a number of different standardized tests. It, in a sense, is a measure of intellectual ability with the average IQ for Americans being between 70 and 130. Interestingly enough, a person's IQ score can be linked to Socioeconomic Status, which was discussed in our previous blog. You can take an IQ test at http://www.iqtest.com/ and find out your IQ score for free. After completing the test, the site will ask if you want to buy something. You do not need to buy anything to find out your score.
