the fixed mindset. The growing mindset students put in work and do not give up on setbacks unlike fixed mindset students who do not feel comfortable with challenges. Stereotypes affect the mindset. Mistakes and failures are consequences of fixed intelligence. Different mindsets strive differently in effort as school and grading gets harder. There was a suspicion of the praise movement. Dweck says children are praised…

Intellectual strengths are defined as, “…assets in our lives that give us the capacity to acquire, process, and understand information” (Millard 142). Everyone has different styles of learning and different types environments that they work best in. There are three main learning styles: kinesthetic, auditory, and visual. Based on what learning capacity you work best in, you can alter the way you study or the environment that you are working in. Personally, I consider myself to be a visual and…

The facts and the results of my experiments are clear, and the more sensational aspects of my own rapid climb cannot obscure the fact that the tripling of intelligence by the surgical technique developed by Drs. Strauss and Nemur must be viewed as having little or no practical applicability (at the present time) to the increase of human intelligence.” (Keyes,79) In the quote from the text it explains that he will not keep what he has learned. But he did help the scientist figure out that they…

Emotional Intelligence What is the secret to a successful career? This question is often asked by many around the world with different set of answers. The most common answer is high intelligence quotient. People with higher intelligence quotient are better at learning and understanding things since they have superior grasping power. They are more likely to do well academically. A logical assumption, therefore, is that such people tend to be more successful at work and through life. However,…

There is little doubt that knowledge can be produced through active experiment and passive observation. But they are just two of the several ways in which humans can produce knowledge. In fact, it is accepted that there are eight ways in which knowledge can be acquired. These ways are the following ones: Sense perception, Language, Reason, Emotion, Imagination, Faith, Intuition and Memory. Occasionally, knowledge can be produced in some other way, for example by random discovery (a.k.a.…

According to Lawrence Balter and Robert B. McCall in "Parenthood in America," foster care is seen as a temporary solution for families in crisis, families in which the child has been subjected to neglect or abuse (physical, sexual). The family’s relationship is always a best foundation to grow up a child. “Family is not an important thing. It's everything.” - Michael J. Fox. Although Rex Walls and Rose Mary fail to care their children sufficiently, it is better for the Walls children to remain…

The notion of intelligence has attracted scholars and educators. The traditional conception of intelligence rests largely upon a monolithic, static view of intelligence. Spearman (1904) made the first theoretical attempt to describe intelligence proposing his g model (g for general) .This theoretical model was the outcome of the measurement of psychological abilities. He believed in the existence of a “common underlying ability or force serving as the basis for all our mental/intellectual…

A learner centred approach (LCA) is a method of training which attempts to involve learners in the learning process (Le-Ha, 2014). Both what is learnt and the way in which it is learnt is therefore shaped by the learners’ needs, interests and capacities (Le-Ha, 2014). In addition to enabling effective learning, the aim of this approach is to develop vital skills such as critical thinking and problem solving (Coetzee, 2013). This essay will argue that the implementation of this technique will…

The purpose of this research paper was to discuss an overview of the semantic and structural memories and to examine which one of the two have better recall retention. Semantic memories store information through personal events and adding meaning to it, an example would be associating words as unpleasant or pleasant. In another hand, structural memory is obtaining information of what an individual sees, an example would be seeing if a word is upper case or lower case. Evidence suggests semantic…
