INTELLECT
- Which student with extraordinary abilities belongs to the group of "gifted" or "high-interested" or "highly-motivated"? First, we can state that students with extraordinary abilities have a developed intellect.
- Modern Educational Psychology and Cognitive Didactics regard the intellect as a dynamic system, which has its characteristics and processes.
- Giftedness is associated with intellectual processes and the student's individual characteristics within the intellectual process. Endowment is that which is formed during human activity but is NOT transformed in the form of knowledge, skills, and abilities. It is an area between the results of the activity and the human aptitude.
Intellect = f (Intellectual Style, Intellectual Strategy)
