The way that I would define intelligence is that intelligence is the use of knowledge to solve problems, socialize, and find understanding. To me, it is found in many different aspects of life and in many different ways. I understand that some students are generally more gifted, but everyone has intelligence and can develop intelligence.
This will impact the way I treat my students, because I will try to come into my classroom with optimism and avoid the belief that certain students "can not." Everyone can develop and further their intelligence from the most gifted to the least gifted and to not help both would be wrong. Furthermore, I will look for student strengths in order to better utilize talents and bring in assets. Students can be a huge asset to each other and talents should be recognized and utilized.
