Why reading and spelling are not the same as intelligence.
The system confused the route with the mind.
Literacy is powerful, but it is not the same as intelligence. A dyslexic person may struggle with spelling, decoding or written speed while thinking deeply and creatively.
When a system makes reading and writing the only acceptable route, it can hide ability.
Awareverse supports multiple routes to expression, evidence and success.
When looking at intelligence vs literacy, ask: who had power, who was being labelled, and what would have changed if the human being had been seen first?
