Whenever it comes to a good student, the image of a person who is excellent in the study with a high IQ scores emerges in most people’s mind. As the antonym of “good” is “bad”, people naturally take it for granted that the opposite of a good student is a bad student. But does the student who fail his scores deserve to be classified as the bad student? Or is the academic score the only way to judge a student’s quality?
In my opinion, there are no bad students at all, but only good students or not. I totally agree with Howard Gardner’s theory of multiple intelligence. He broadened the concept of intelligence, defining it as “the capacity to solve problems or to fashion products that are valued in one or more cultural settings”(Gardner, 1989, p.5). A “genius” may be “stumped trying to unpack and plug in a toaster oven”, while a “mediocrity” may go on “to fame and riches”(Sadker, M.D.
