IQ
What is IQ? How is it determined? What does it measure? Are there more important measurements - maybe a measurement using Howard Gardner's Multiple Intelligence Theory, or a measurement which looks at how well someone can synthesize information?

Working Memory More Important Than IQ
If what this study suggests is true, shouldn't the schools be focusing more on cognitive skills, i.e. working memory?

If only there was a way to quantify how well a student synthesized information or how they performed in a game or project. Oh wait..... project based learning.
