What is actually measured when a student is given an intelligence test? Is an I.Q. score truly a measure of a child's intelligence? This text exposes the misconceptions surrounding the determination of intelligence. The author begins by providing background on the development of intelligence measures and how they have led to the deficit-base perspective when describing student's abilities. Dr Miller proposes a new approach to understanding what we call smart, which is sensitive to culture, age, gender, education, and economic circumstances. This method, Smart Profiling, which Dr Miller has developed, is explored as a means of determining how people are smart, or more clearly, how they construct their lives to derive meaning.
