[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Bilingual kids are smart, it has been researched. This doesn't always translate to success in iq tests Also, iq is fluid and can grow in time Iq tests are cultural:a question could have the word drapes instead of curtains, and confuse the test taker Some teachers are not that good. A teacher should be able to maintain the focus of the students and be able to teach Interest in the topic is a big predicter of success. A teacher should be able to create this in the classroom [/quote] But none of this addresses the fact that half of all kids are below average, which no one wants to admit. Everyone wants to assume that if a kid isn't performing well or has a low iq, it has to be for one of the reasons given above, it can't be because the kid really is part of the 50% of the population that is below average.
