what about intelligence?

Alert: highly idiosyncratic stream of consciousness post


I webbed to a reference to



The Genius in All of Us: Why Everything You've Been Told About Genetics, Talent, and IQ Is Wrong by David Shenk

I'm thinking about this quote from the author interview on Amazon:



"Find the thing you love to do, and work and work and work at it. Don't be discouraged by failure; realize that high achievers thrive on failure as a motivating mechanism and an instruction guide on how to get better."

.... the alleged interest in the County that we teachers engage our own passion.... how to incorporate students' passions in the curriculum


What if my intellectual passion (professionally speaking) does not align to the SSS or the GLE?


Where was this concept when I was trapped in the PCS system?  My perception: you don't get it the way we give it? You fail.     Next!
