the complete book of intelligence tests
Level: university
Type: text books
Subject: aptitude
Author: philip carter
Intelligence may be narrowly defined as the capacity to acquire knowledge and understanding, and use it in different novel situations. It is this ability, or capacity, which enables the individual to deal with real situations and profit intellectually from sensory experience. A test of intelligence is designed to formally study, under test conditions, the success of an individual in adapting to a specific situation. There are a number of different methods which purport to measure intelligence, the most famous of which is the IQ, or intelligence quotient test. In the formation of such tests many psychologists treat intelligence as a general ability operating as a common factor in a wide variety of aptitudes. Whilst many IQ tests measure a variety of different types of ability such as verbal, mathematical, spatial and reasoning skills, there is now a second school of thought in which it is believed that the earlier definitions of intelligence may be too simplistic. It is now becoming increasingly recognised that there are many different types of intelligence and that a high measured IQ, although desirable, is not the only key to success in life. Other characteristics, such as outstanding artistic, creative or practical prowess, especially if combined with personal characteristics such as ambition, good temperament and compassion, could result in an outstanding level of success despite a low measured IQ. It is because of this that in recent years CQ (creative quotient) and EQ (emotional quotient), to name just two examples, have come to be regarded as equally important as, or even more important than, IQ measurement.

the law of those with special needs
Level: university
Type: text books
Subject: special needs, legal aspect
Author: lubogo, christopher isaac
Often a number of questions are always posed on how the law treats the people with special needs, in the presence of equality provisions, it is absurd that there is still a wide lacuna to deal with people with special needs in our jurisprudence. Special Needs literally means a combination term referring to a wide range of conditions which causes a greater difficulty or restriction in a person’s learning at a normal pace and performance of daily life activities. Like the U.N puts it clear that “The ultimate goal is to achieve [disability] equality”1The ongoing argument succumbs its roots from the different categories of special needs which include autism, cerebral palsy, Down syndrome, dyslexia, dyscalculia, dyspraxia, dysgraphia, blindness, deafness, ADHD, and cystic fibrosis. Basically these individuals require assistance for “ disabilities” (not the right word) that may be medical, mental, or psychological. In the United States "special needs" is a legal term applying in foster care, derived from the language in the Adoption and Safe Families Act of 1997. It is a diagnosis used to classify children as needing "more" services than those children without special needs who are in the foster care system. It is a diagnosis based on behavior, childhood and family history, and is usually made by a health care professional.

Author: lubogo, christopher isaac

Interestingly, even those great jurists like Lord Denning, Lord Atkins, Justice Oliver Weddell Holmes, Allan Dershowitz, Jonnie Cochran, John Marshall (longest serving Chief Justice of the Supreme Court in history) who have gifted the world with the greatest legal principles ever experienced.
