Very interesting article and well-supported. Of the many ideas, this one stood out to me: "As a Psychology Today article highlights, while high IQ is typically associated with cognitive abilities like abstract reasoning, giftedness involves a broader range of intellectual, emotional, and creative traits that often go beyond what standardized tests measure." As a teacher, I have often argued against one test type. I find it interesting that only academics write tests. What about the child who doesn't test well or can't comprehend something on the page, but in practice, performs perfectly? Great article.
