It has been recognized as critical in effective education and learning . Intellectual need arises when someone poses a question to themselves or others, either out of curiosity or to solve a specific problem. Intellectual need is often greatest when there is a hole in an otherwise well connected web of knowledge. Merely understanding a question and being unable to answer it is not sufficient to create intellectual need intellectual need arises when a person believes the question to be interesting or important, and usually this involves fitting the question into a framework of well understood ideas. A common critique of certain educational systems is that students are expected to learn facts and ideas in the absence of any intellectual need. As a result, the teachers and educational system must provide extrinsic motivation for the students in the form of tests, grades, or other incentives. This gives rise to a whole series of problems, ranging from boredom to academic dishonesty . Examples A student who asks a question is displaying an intellectual need for the question to be answered. A birdwatcher who cannot identify a certain bird will often have a strong intellectual need to identify that bird because it represents a hole in their knowledge however, others might have no intellectual need, even though they also cannot identify the bird.

  1. Intellectual rights

    Unreferenced date October 2007 intellectual property Intellectual rights from the French language French droits intellectuels is a term sometimes used to refer to the legal protection afforded to owners of intellectual capital . This notion is more commonly referred to as intellectual property , though intellectual rights more aptly describes the nature of the protections afforded by most nations. Both terms were used in Europe during the 19th century as a means of distinguishing between two different views of intellectual protection. Intellectual property was generally used to advocate a belief that copyright s and patent s should provide rights akin to physical Legal property property rights. The term intellectual rights was used by those who felt that such protection should take the form of temporary, limited grants. Although most modern copyright systems do not treat copyrighted or patented materials in the same way as real property, the term intellectual property has gained prominence.

  1. Intellectual synthesis

    Unreferenced date April 2009 Intellectual Synthesis is a broad term describing scholarly endeavors meant to unify and fuse a large amount of information into a single integrated body of knowledge. Commonly, intellectual synthesis occurs as an interdisciplinary or multidisciplinary academic effort by one or more scholars. Examples of Intellectual Synthesis A good example would be Big history , which is an effort to reexamine human history within the context of the wider history of the universe, applying diverse fields of knowledge to paint a picture which is wider in scope, and relies on much information generally outside of the discipline of history anthropology, systems theory, geology, biology, sociology, cosmology . Intellectual synthesis is most apparent in fields which blur the lines of existing disciplines for example, history has been regarded as a social science , but is dependent upon anthropology, sociology, political science, economics, military theory, climatology, etc., and some such as Jared Diamond have proposed establishing human history as one of the historical sciences . World History is another example as typically historians specialize on particular periods or regions or nations with a new synthesis occurring of the histories of the world s diverse societies being brought together to tell a unified picture of the course of world history. The goal of intellectual synthesis is to bring together all of the related transdisciplinary knowledge into a single, cohesive whole to provide for a more complete and comprehensive understanding and potentially lead to new theories, perspectives, and interpretations. Many new and emerging fields involve intellectual synthesis ...

  1. Intellectual cover

    orphan date April 2010 Intellectual cover is a usually negative term for sophisticated arguments provided by members of the intelligentsia to bolster a particular viewpoint, and thereby help it gain respectability. Usually the viewpoint is one that a supporter e.g. a politician leaned toward anyway, but needed arguments to help him justify to others. The implication is that the supporter is not really interested in the truth but is just looking for an excuse to hold a certain position.
