Assignment: Experience with Intelligence Tests
General Instructions for Journals
While journals are less formal than course papers (i.e. you can and should include personal reflection and experiences; use first person, etc.), you should still be sure to use complete sentences and correct grammar and spelling. Journals should be at least one page. You should make specific connections (including APA formatted citations when appropriate) between your personal reflections and examples and the theory, terms, and research being discussed in class.

What experience or background knowledge do you have with intelligence tests? Think about some of the reasons why one would need to be given an intelligence test. What are these reasons? What implications do these have in the classroom? How has your opinion about testing changed over the course of this first week?
