Intelligence Tests and School Reorganisation

Book cover
By: (1877-1956)

Intelligence Tests and School Reorganisation by Lewis Terman offers a thought-provoking examination of the relationship between intelligence testing and educational systems. Terman argues that intelligence tests can be valuable tools for identifying students' strengths and weaknesses, and for determining appropriate educational placements. He suggests that schools should use intelligence tests to group students according to their abilities, creating more homogeneous classrooms that can better meet the needs of individual learners.

Terman's book raises important questions about the role of intelligence testing in education and the potential benefits of restructuring schools based on students' cognitive abilities. While some may question the validity and fairness of using intelligence tests as a basis for educational decision-making, Terman presents a compelling case for their usefulness in improving student outcomes.

Overall, Intelligence Tests and School Reorganisation is a thought-provoking and provocative read that will challenge readers to reconsider the ways in which we organize and deliver education. Terman's insights are sure to spark important conversations and debates in the field of education.
