Topic: Intelligence across culture

Assalamualaikum warahmatullahTo be honour to standing here now. Thanks for my Tutors Mister Muadz and Miss Novi, all of my friend in Nuts Genk. Thanks for AERO, the homy place for learning English. And certainly, thanks for your coming here guys. I wanna deliver something for increasing our knowledge maybe.How do you think about intelligence? What is that? Is it about being clever and getting A score in all your lecture subject? Or is it more complicated than that? Recent research in Asia, Africa, and America suggest that the concept of intelligence differs from culture to culture.This research has shown that people in non Western cultures often have different ideas from people in Western cultures about Intellegence. The studies show that people in Western cultures tend to see intellegence in terms of ones ability to solving problems and think rationaly. Meanwhile, Eastern cultures see intelegence in terms of peoples ability to successfully play their role with social environtment both at home and at work.Another study shows differences in how much important is given to verbal and nonverbal communication skill. Western cultures seem to value more highly the ability to say something clearly, whereas non Western cultures seem to value the use and understanding of gesture and facial expressions.And also many people in western world tend to think that the most important thing about intelligence is being smart, someone who have skills in resding writing and mathematics. But in Asian culture think that intellegence value on the development of ones interpersonal skill, like in Indonesia. These include being an effective team member, or ability to create agreement within a group of people. Indonesian culture is friendly, have a conscious of working together and helping each other. Many Asian cultures also highly rate the development of a persons introspective abilities. This is the ability to go inside and get knowlegde about yourself.All the intelegence were valued, but somehow capacity in these areas was seen as special depends on the culture.(mister aku mau konsul tentang conclusion akhirnya, masih bigung)
