Curious Researcher: Ch. 1

What is one thing that you can take from this introduction to apply to your third paper?
One thing that really stood out to me was when he was saying that you don’t need to know your thesis before you start writing and coming up with ideas.  I was always taught to develop a thesis first and then go from there, so I found it reassuring that that’s not how it has to be.  He helped me realize that it doesn’t have to be so clean cut, and done in any specific order.
What was the ending of “Theories of Intelligence?”
I actually didn’t get to finish the entire paper of his, but what I took away from what I did read was that he has finally come to the realization that he can’t be knowledgeable in every conversation that her partakes in.  He is okay with the fact that people are smarter than him in some things and he is smarter than others in different things, and he doesn’t need to feel bad or ashamed about it.
