I am confused....it seems that the most stupid thing of all would be to to disregard the basic dignity of each person by considering them, and deciding that they are, essentially stupid. I can think of dozens of other things to consider before "stupid" was ever applied in a serious manner.

I may be misinterpreting what you've said here, randomsomeone. Please forgive me if I have erred.

Essentially I agree with you.

I may be going out on a limb here
 
Everyone is smart in their own way. I've known people who are book smart, but have absolutely no street smarts. I've also known people who are filthy rich because of their gift for gab, but can't spell any word with more than two syllables. Basing stupidity on IQ alone is stupid. Here's a popular theory used in teacher training courses called Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences:

VISUAL/SPATIAL - learning visually and organizing ideas spatially. Seeing concepts in action in order to understand them. The ability to "see" things in one's mind in planning to create a product or solve a problem.

VERBAL/LINGUISTIC - learning through the spoken and written word. This intelligence was always valued in the traditional classroom and in traditional assessments of intelligence and achievement.

MATHEMATICAL/LOGICAL - learning through reasoning and problem solving. Also highly valued in the traditional classroom, where students were asked to adapt to logically sequenced delivery of instruction.

BODILY/KINESTHETIC - learning through interaction with one's environment. This intelligence is not the domain of "overly active" learners. It promotes understanding through concrete experience.

MUSICAL/RHYTHMIC - learning through patterns, rhythms and music. This includes not only auditory learning, but the identification of patterns through all the senses.

INTRAPERSONAL - learning through feelings, values and attitudes. This is a decidedly affective component of learning through which students place value on what they learn and take ownership for their learning.

INTERPERSONAL - learning through interaction with others. Not the domain of children who are simply "talkative" or "overly social." This intelligence promotes collaboration and working cooperatively with others.

NATURALIST - learning through classification, categories and hierarchies. The naturalist intelligence picks up on subtle differences in meaning. It is not simply the study of nature; it can be used in all areas of study..

EXISTENTIAL - learning by seeing the "big picture": "Why are we here?" "What is my role in the world?" "What is my place in my family, school and community?" This intelligence seeks connections to real world understandings and applications of new learning.
