Please comment

Dear fellow education community members,

I am seeking your help for a university assignment revolved around knowledge, intelligence and expertise. I would be eternally grateful if you could respond to 1 or more of the questions below by adding a comment on my post.
The link has been posted onto my Twitter.

(1) What in your view qualifies someone as an expert? (Is an expert someone who has more knowledge, or uses their knowledge differently, etc.?)

(2) How do you think you become an expert? (Consider issues of dispositions, interest, education, exposure to other experts, favourable environment, circumstances, etc.)

(3) To what extent do you think it is possible to “make” someone an expert? If so, explain how could it be done. If not, explain why it may be difficult or even not possible. (Consider issues of instruction, coaching, environmental conditions, etc.)

(4) Do you think there is a relationship between expertise and intelligence? (What do you mean by “intelligence”?)


Many thanks!

Julia
