What does it really mean to be smart?

In this episode of Maths with Masego, we challenge the idea that intelligence is all about getting top marks in maths or acing exams. Using Howard Gardner’s theory of Multiple Intelligences, we explore the many different ways people — especially kids — can be smart: from music and movement to empathy, problem-solving, creativity, and more.

Whether you're a learner who's never felt "academic enough" or a parent trying to support your child’s unique strengths, this episode will help you rethink how we define intelligence and success.
