What is intelligence? What is the purpose of deciphering the different categories of intelligence? When I was young, I really never knew what I was good at, and until recently I still did not know. Placing oneself into a category that shows one’s strengths and weaknesses helps a person use that information to succeed in their life, home, and occupation. To people that categorize intelligence are Robert J. Sternberg, and Howard Gardner (Santrock, 2012). Intelligence can be interpreted in many ways so Sternberg made a theory, Matthew made a theory, and children can use these theories to excel in school, and life. Two ways to determine intelligence are using Sternberg’s triarchic theory of intelligence or Gardener’s Frames of Mind: The Theory…

throughout adulthood, while also being our source of socialization. Normally, people tend to get along with others that share the same personal experiences or hobbies and that is why our friends become our support in adulthood. If you think about it people that have a family tend to hangout with other people their age with a family and single men and women hangout with other friends that are single. Finding a intimate relationship is difficult. Robert Sternberg proposed that there are two types…

activities that I previously enjoyed with my friends. Who are your friends? At this point in my life my friends have narrowed down to a few that I keep in contact with from childhood/teenage years as well as a few couples that my wife and I enjoy doing “couple things” together. Though typically there is not a lot of time in our life to spend leisurely instead things have become scheduled and planned ahead of time to fit into our hectic lifestyles that mainly involve work. Who do you love…

Intelligence is a very funny thing. How should we measure it? In fact, what is intelligence really; how should we label it in the modern educational world? Should we keep with the archaic tests of educators of the past that only aimed their test to a select privileged few? One that only viewed the students from a very limited point of view and did not really predict how well they will do in the future. I personally believe that this not the correct method for the modern educational world, and it…

an early example shaker culture when Mr. Tanner gives young Robert the pig for help and apron with the calving. Mr. Haven and Robert are fixing the fence when Mr. Tanner brings the pig Roberts father states about accepting the pig “we thank you brother Tanner but it’s not the shaker way to take frills for being neighborly” (P 21). I think this shows that in the shaker culture they feel that is not right to accept a gift or payment for doing the right thing in any given situation are helping out…

The perspective of a work of literature changes from the first time you set your eyes on it. My point of view of the poem Porphyria’s Lover by Robert Browning changed drastically from the beginning of this research project till now. As I looked into information over this poem and different aspects about it, I began to have more of an open mind towards it and understand the true meaning behind it. I learned that poetry has more to it that just the words that were printed on the page. It allowed…

in the leadership’s hands than members of the House making it acceptable for Senate to serve longer terms in order to cater to the large and diverse constituencies. Term limits are a necessary evil that we need to address now. They are evil not in a way that harms the democratic process, rather evil because it would require change and most often people are highly adverted to change. Ironic as it may be, in order to see a change in our government we first need to make a larger change that will…

The Matrix, on the other hand, is more than just a thought experiment. It is a narrative that is judged aesthetically, and as such its success requires that its creators produce something that will captivate and engage an audience. Carroll has asserted that, narratives, far from being complete, have gaps which need to be filled by the audience. That is, creators of narratives do not spell-out every detail of the narrative, instead, narratives rely on the elicitation of moral emotions from an…

Mainstream media representations of masculinity play a role in shaping attitudes and ideas about what it means to be a “real” man in our society. In most media portrayals, male characters are rewarded for self-control and the control of others, aggression and violence, financial independence, and physical desirability. Many characteristics of the alpha stereotype are demonstrated through the character of David Greene who is played by Brenden Fraser in the movie School Ties (1992), directed by…
