Human intelligence & Learning Wyatt, Cody, and Aaron

Learning When new concepts are learned they are best retained when they are connected to personal and emotional experiences. The three control process that make up our intellect are memory, processing speed, and knowledge base. The factors that facilitate to the increase of the knowledge base: past experience, current opportunity and personal motivation

IQ IQ: Intelligence Quotient Developed by Alfred Binet in 1904 Measures intellectual aptitude or your ability to learn Other achievement tests such as SAT and ACT only measure what you have learned instead or your abilities.

IQ Testing Arises from two aspects Multicultural Multicontextual And how to understand the two

What can affect Testing The culture of where you live can have a big affect on learning. Also other things that can affect your own learning can be school, family, teachers ability on teaching, or the culture. It’s not because of the ability of the student.

Children and learning In some cultures children are taught to consider them self's part of a group. With these groups the individual is taught how to work with others. Social interaction shows the potential of a child's learning ability.

Theories on Human Intelligence General or Unitary intelligence: Under all cognitive thought processes is a single intelligence factor Also know as “g” Charles Spearmen Commonly thought of underlying theory of “IQ” Likely to score high on other cognitive tests if scores are high in other areas.

Multiple intelligences Developed by Robert Sternberg and Howard Gardner Believed one test could not measure the complexities of cognitive development Robert’s three intelligences include academic, creative, and practical Gardner’s intelligences included linguistic, logical, mathematical, musical, spatial, bodily-kinesthetic, interpersonal, and intrapersonal. Also thought of as EQ (Emotional Intelligence)

Theories on Human Intelligence Fluid Intelligence (gF): the ability to reason and problem solve with novel tasks or in unfamiliar contexts (measured by tests of spatial and inductive reasoning) Crystallized Intelligence (gC): acquired knowledge and is measured using tests of general knowledge, mathematics, reading comprehension, and vocabulary knowledge. Raymond Cattell
