SAT Does Not Represent Intelligence - Opinions - 0 views

    • dahyunk08
       
      people who dont have enough money wont be able to take SAT because it costs some money. only those people who are able to pay money to take SAT will be able to get into colleges
  • Why then are colleges using what appears to be more of a wealth test than a merit test as a main evaluative tool for admission? Because that's the game. This is the game that was designed by the rich to keep the rich rich, the poor poor, and the middle class in extreme amounts of debt.
  • Not only does this test carry so much weight in your appeal as a prospective student, especially to prestigious Ivy League schools, and act as a means for the more wealthy to succeed, it also does not in any way accurately measure your "raw intelligence," so to speak.

      what is art therapy?
  • It is where a person will use art, whether it is clay, paints, or pencils, to express themselves. It is a therapy that can help a person explore their inner feelings, their dreams or memories in a way that could often be easier than using words.
  • Art encourages a person to be more creative and through this type of therapy can gain a better understanding of themselves and their issues.
  • ...1 more annotation...
  • Art therapy is perhaps the best way for a therapist to help a patient bring out what is bothering them and creating the depression or condition. Sometimes words are just not enough and can’t fully explain what a patient is feeling or going though. Art has a way of allowing a person to express their feelings fully. Words can occasionally be limiting, where art does not really have any limits and this is what makes this type of therapy a great option for young and old alike.

      purpose of art therapy.
  • The Diagnostic Drawing Series is an art therapy assessment that assesses for a range of major psychiatric disorders.
    • slee08
       
      one method of art therapy called Diagnoistic Drawing Series.
  • In this assessment, a person is asked to select a card from a deck with different mandalas; designs enclosed in a geometric shape, and then must choose a color from a set of colored cards (Malchiodi 1998). The person is then asked to draw the mandala from the card they choose with an oil pastel of the color of their choice (Malchiodi 1998). The artist is then asked to explain if there were any meanings, experiences, or related information related to the mandala they drew (Malchiodi 1998). This test is based on the beliefs of Joan Kellogg, who sees a reoccurring correlation between the images, pattern and shapes in the mandalas that people draw and the personalities of the artists (Malchiodi 1998). This test assesses and gives clues to a person's psychological progressions and their current psychological condition (Malchiodi 1998). The mandala originates in Buddhism; its connections with spirituality help us to see links with transpersonal art.
    • slee08
       
      Another method of art therapy called MARI- The Mandala Assessment Research Instrument.
  • In this assessment, the patient is asked to draw a picture with a house, a tree, and a person in it (Malchiodi 1998). After the patient has finished the drawing, the therapist asks questions like, "How old is the person in your drawing? What is he or she doing? What is the house made of? What is the weather in this picture?" (Malchiodi 1998). This is a projective assessment and the house, the tree, and person in the drawing represent different aspects of the artist and the way the artist feels about him or herself (Malchiodi 1998).

      what art therapy is for.
  • At some point in their lives, people may find themselves overwhelmed by the intensity of their emotions which are difficult to face either by themselves or with others. Art therapy offers an opportunity to explore these intense or painful thoughts and feelings in a supportive environment. It involves using a wide variety of art materials, for example paints, clay and batik, to create a visual representation of thought and feelings. Art Therapy can be an individual activity but is often used very successfully in group situations.
