The document discusses nonverbal intelligence tests and their use in evaluating students from diverse linguistic and cultural backgrounds. It provides guidelines for determining which intelligence tests are appropriate for a given student based on their individual characteristics and backgrounds. Nonverbal tests may be preferable to verbal tests for students with language deficiencies or those from minority ethnic groups to minimize cultural and linguistic bias. The results of verbal and nonverbal tests should both be considered to get a full picture of a student's abilities.
Attitude of Students towards Integral Calculus through the Screening Examinat...ijtsrd
One thing that may affect the students’ perception of mathematics is the attitude of the students towards the subject. This study was conducted to assess the attitude of students towards integral calculus. The subjects of this study were the 94 second year students of the College of Engineering taking up BSAE, BSCE, BSEE and BSME who were enrolled in Integral Calculus. This group of students were a combination of the first timer and repeaters in Integral Calculus. This were the students who were not screened out from the screening examination conducted by the researcher. It employed the descriptive correlational method using the frequency counts, weighted means and analysis of variance.The instrument used in this study was the attitude scale. This instrument was administered to the students before the first screening examination and after the last screening examination.Results revealed that students have favourable attitudes towards integral calculus before and after the screening examination strategy. However, results also revealed that the profile of the students in terms of gender, number of times the student took the subject and the students’ performance on the prerequisite subject has nothing to do or did not influence the attitudes of the students towards the subject.

CHAPTER 8
Adult Intelligence: Sketch of a Theory and Applications to Learning and Education
Phillip L. Ackerman
University of Minnesota
OVERVIEW
Intelligence theory and assessment methods have traditionally been aimed at predicting academic success. As such, efforts during the early part of this century first focused on predicting the school success of children and young adolescents (for a review, see Ackerman, 1996). Around World War I, intelligence test content was extended upward—to allow for testing of young and middle-aged adults. As the educational establishment embraced intelligence testing, postsecondary institutions increasingly relied on the use of tests for selection of college and university applicants, starting in the 1920s. Today’s college entrance tests, such as the Scholastic Assessment Tests (SAT) and the American College Testing Program (ACT), show a significant resemblance to the adult intelligence tests of the 1920s. Although these procedures may be useful predictors of college success for young adults, they fail to take account of the differences between child/adolescent intelligence and adult intelligence. A perspective of intelligence that focuses on knowledge as a key ingredient of adult intelligence is presented in this chapter. By moving away from the traditional process-oriented conceptualization of intelligence to a knowledge-oriented conceptualization, many aspects of adult intellectual development can be considered, especially in the context of learning and education for adults. Such a shift in emphasis provides a basis for considering other aspects of the adult learner, such as personality, interests, and motivational skills—and provides a framework for an integrated view of adult development, learning, and education.
In this chapter, I first discuss the differences between child and adult intelligence, as a contrast between process and knowledge components of intellect. Next, a discussion is presented of relations between intelligence and personality, interests, and motivational skills. Putting all of these components together provides for a perspective on adult development that stands in contrast to the traditional view of intellectual decline with increasing age. Finally, some implications of the knowledge-based perspective for adult education and learning are presented.
REVIEW OF DISTINCTION BETWEEN CHILD AND ADULT INTELLIGENCE
Intelligence as Process?
When the first modern procedures were devised for assessing intelligence, Binet and Simon (1905) distinguished between two different approaches, which they called the psychological and pedagogical methods. The psychological method, which they adopted for assessment of children, was specifically oriented toward aspects of intelligence that were believed to be less influenced by cultural privilege—namely memory, reasoning, following directions, and so on. Most of the measures that were developed to assess intelligence were thus process measures. Later developmen ...

Essential Skills: Critical Thinking For College Studentsnoblex1
Much literature is available on programs to teach critical thinking, and a substantial amount of evidence indicates critical thinking can be taught and learned, especially when instruction is specifically designed to encourage transfer of skills. Nevertheless, the types of studies required to confirm with certitude the efficacy of teaching critical thinking present practical and methodological problems.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
Let's dive deeper into the world of ODC! Ricardo Alves (OutSystems) will join us to tell all about the new Data Fabric. After that, Sezen de Bruijn (OutSystems) will get into the details on how to best design a sturdy architecture within ODC.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Advance figure intelligence scale (final edit)
1.
2. The Advance Figure Intelligence Scale was constructed to measure the intelligence of an individual. Furthermore the test aimed to:
3. Help students determine their I. Q. Level. Those who have obtained high I.Q. does not emphasize intellectual superiority, but rather for the assessment of their logical thinking. Additionally, teachers or professors must develop special activities or programs that will enable the student to improve his or her problem solving ability in a logical manner.
4. Serve as psychodiagnosis in clinical setting, to determine the intellectual capacity of a client or patient who has mental and behavioral problems.
5. Help the human resource officer or managers to identify the best productive employees, by determining their logical ability. A person who thinks logically can solve problems in a more accurate manner.
6.
7. Teachers. This will give them the basic information regarding the logical intelligence of their students.

9. The researchers applied the stanine method to establish the norms of the scale. Stanine scale ( Murphy & Davidshofer, 1998) is a commonly used statistical means of interpreting scores and is dependent on the assumption that the measured trait is distributed normally in the general population, so that a graphic representation of the distribution would closely approximate the so-termed “bell-shaped curve.” In a normal raw-score distribution, the greatest number of cases is focused on the middle while the remaining cases are distributed symmetrically on either side, decreasing as the distance from the center becomes greater. It follows that, within the limits imposed by a particular raw-score distribution, transformed stanine scores can be expected to conform to the proportions of this normal curve with a permanent percent of cases falling within each of the nine classifications, as illustrated below:
