It actually poses the question, are the current limits on human intelligence due to the human being’s genetic design or is it due to poor education?
Education can’t make dumb people smart, but it can work wonders for naturally smart people. The other day I suggested that if we had to put a badly run country into receivership and straighten it out, I would pick North Korea because of the natural experiment that has happened on that peninsula. Their cousins to the south show that the extended Korean tribe has the genetic goods to benefit from the investment.
What I was fundamentally wondering with the above post was the relationship of developmental education and eventual I.Q. Such as given identical genetic characteristics would heightened mental stimulation during early brain development greatly improve the I.Q. over the control?
