It represents the “what” of knowledge. Fluid intelligence is process driven and transforms data into
information, knowledge through to wisdom. It is the high order “how” and “why” and “so what?” of intelligence.

intelligence may be enhanced or stimulated by active discussion based learning. Moreover, processing data into
information and then into knowledge through to higher order cognitive activity such as applications in novel
conditions or contexts results in both critical, insightful knowledge and wisdom ( Gurubatham , 2005a) in the
