I would love to see more research about TIQ. It seems to me that a teacher with a high TIQ would be more effective.

We want teachers to be reflective in their practice and constantly vigilant about their students. "Worry" may have too negative a connotation, but there is a visceral element to parental (and good teacher) concern. There is a nagging, gut-level, something-isn't-right-here response that good teachers have about their students. If the awareness is not there, the teacher has no reason to change or correct to resolve the issue that is "not right." In many ways, such awareness is like a meld of interpersonal and intrapersonal intelligence. I colloquially call it "worry," but it is far deeper. There may be multiple dimensions to it, as well. Only a good look can determine the significance. idont,

Mothers who worry can raise their kids better, but not always. Sometimes they get too worried or over anxious, and their involvement becomes annoying and frustrating to their kids. Is there any data to support that mothers who worry even raise their kids better? Psychology has shown that over-involvement from family members can cause disorders in children. At what point do we drawn the line? When we relate the topic back to teaching, what problems could be caused by over-worrying? I don't doubt the significance that TIQ plays in students' learning (although studies on it couldn't hurt), but what is the significance, and is it something that we necessarily want?
