How far will you go to give your child the best? How do you boost his ‘intelligence’ to make sure he achieves excellence in more fields than one?
But when we say intelligence, what does it mean? Is it as simple as when your child got a high IQ test score, it means she/he is intelligent? So what about those (eherm eherm) that only got an average score on IQ tests? What are we? Not intelligent?
BIG TIME OUCHY no?
Good thing, (specially on our ego and to our kids!) Howard Gradner , Hobbs professor of education and cognition at the Harvard Graduate School of Education believes that intelligence is more complex than we think.
THANK YOU HOWARD GARDNER!
Howard Gardner, Hobbs professor of education and cognition at the Harvard Graduate School of Education believes that intelligence is more complex than we think. “It was generally believed that intelligence was a single entity that was inherited, and that human beings – initially a blank state – could be trained to learn anything, provided that it was presented in an appropriate way,” said Gardner in his landmark work Frames of Mind, The Theory of Multiple Intelligences. “Nowadays, an increasing number of researchers believe precisely the opposite; that there exists a multitude of intelligences, quite independent of each other, that each intelligence has its own strengths and constraints…”
Gardner’s theory eventually gave rise to what is known as multiple intelligence – simply put it is brain smart, body smart and people smart. The theory questions the idea that intelligence is a single entity, that it results from a single factor and that it can be measured simply via IQ tests.
So how do you know which intelligence your child exhibits? And what can you do to help them enhance it? Here’s a few guide:
So what do you have? brain smart? body smart or people smart?
Now, here’s the fun part!!

EDIT>>>The Sari-Jeepney was displayed on Google PH Homepage for one day only (November 10,2014)
Let’s play a game shall we? Log on to www.google.com.ph
Anong nakita ninyo?!?
Is that a jeepney? a really, really colorful jeepney?
Yes it is!
And it’s the first ever Doodle 4 Google Philippines Winner titled, Sari-Jeepney.
Out of 51,000 entries from all over the Philippines, Kim Patrick Saren of Nabunturan National Comprehensive High School, came out on top of the contest.
Answering the question, “What can I do for the Philippines?”
“This is a sarimanok inspired idea. It symbolizes Filipino culture with deep appreciation of hard work and creativity,” wrote Kim of his doodle. “The concept is created to solve problems like traffic, economy, education and basic needs. The key on the tail signifies the solutions to the problems wherein we must fly high with pride and honor.” Kim belongs to the 15-17 age group category.

I wrote about this competition a few months back, remember? And it was mentioned that there will be one winner from each age category and a Google Doodler will select one overall winner.
Here are winners from the other 3 group categories:
“Through the competition, we saw the depth of the Filipino youth’s insight, creativity, and innovation. They are very keen on the idea of nation-building,” said Ryan Morales, Google Philippines Country Marketing Manager. “The doodles reflect the aspirations of the nation over pressing issues—from solution to flooding to environment protection to food for the poor, value of education, culture preservation, and global competitiveness.”
Now Kim has all the bragging rights for being on Google PH homepage! COOL!!!
Pero hindi nagtatapos jan.. he also took home the following bonggang bongga prizes!
The age category winners received various prizes including a medal from Google, a Nexus 7 tablet, a 3D doodling pen, and PHP 5,000 worth of gift certificates from National Bookstore.
The pool of entries was narrowed down to 10 per age category by judges comprised of teacher and 2009 CNN Hero of the Year Efren Penaflorida, TBWA-Santiago Mangada Puno Senior Art Director CJ De Silva-Ong, PLDT-Smart Foundation, Inc. President Ma. Esther Santos, and BPI Foundation, Inc. Senior Vice President and Executive Director Fidelina Corcuera. An online public voting determined the age category winners, from which Google Doodler Katy Wu picked the overall winner.
What’s in store for Doodle 4 Google Philippines Competition? Let’s see next year!
