When comparing the subjets ESL and Global Perspectives, it is understood that each requires a different type of intelligence. ESL requires linguistic intelligence for expressing yourself orally and learning a language, intrapersonal intelligence allowing the ability to understand yourself and Interpersonal intelligence to grasp moods and intentions of people. GP requires logical-mathematical intelligence to interpret data, it also requires linguistic and interpersonal intelligence to work in groups.
When I think of 2 ‘intelligent’ people I think of my mum and my dad. They are very different. My Dad is a Civil Engineer; he is a logical man who understands physics and math's on a deep level although he is very socially awkward. My mum is the opposite, she is able to pick up on people’s emotions and make friends very easily; she is a people person although she can be very illogical with her reasoning.
Here is my definition of intelligence:
INTELLIGENCE – Intelligence is the ability to learn, understand, interpret and apply information to a high ability. These abilities can consist of many different aspects which require thorough thought processing to complete a task or activity.
