INTELLIGENCE
“an ability or set of abilities that
allows a person to solve
problem or fashion a product
that is valued in one or more

4. Views of Intelligences
Old View New View
o Intelligence was Fixed
o Intelligence was measured by
a number
o Intelligence was unitary
o Intelligence was measured in
isolation
o Intelligence was used to sort
students and predict their
success
o Intelligence can be developed
o Intelligence is not numerically
quantifiable and is exhibited during a
performance or problem – solving
process
o Intelligence is measured in context/real
– life situations
o Intelligence is used to understand
human capacities and the many and the
varied ways students can achieve
o Intelligence can be exhibited in many
ways – Multiple Intelligences
