A Curriculum for Developing Intelligence.

Mary M. Meeker · 1987

The article describes a curriculum used in gifted programming which is based on Guilford's Structure of Intellect (SOI) theory of intelligence. Sourcebooks and individual SOI modules have been developed to train over 90 kinds of intellectual ability. Five categories of intellectual ability are defined (cognition, memory, evaluation, convergent production, and divergent production), and sample SOI activities are listed in each category for use by teachers and parents in facilitating intellectual development in gifted children: Appended is a complete list of the 18 discrete intellectual abilities which comprise each of the five SOI categories.
