Applications Dr. Gardner says that our schools focus on linguistic and

logical-mathematical intelligence

Leads to kids being labeled as learning disabled orhyperactive when they may not be

Theory of multiple intelligences suggests that teachers betrained to present their lessons in a wide variety of waysusing music, cooperative learning, art activities, role play,multimedia, field trips, inner reflection, and much more


35/44

The Key is .

Dont try to fit MI

into a box.

As educators we

must teach thewhole child and

work to address all

intelligences andtheir many facets.


36/44

Implementing Gardner

Lesson Design Using all or different intelligencesand asking students for opinions on them

Student Projects Students can learn to "initiateand manage complex projects" when they arecreating student projects.

Assessments Devised to allow students to showwhat they have learned.


37/44


Misuses

Trying to teach all concepts or subjects using allintelligences

Using an intelligence as a background for other

activities Direct evaluation or grading of intelligences without

regard to context.


38/44


Common Good Uses (from Gardner himself)

Cultivate those skills and capabilities that are valued in the

community and in the broader society.

It makes far more sense to spend a significant amount of timeon key concepts, generative ideas, and essential questions and

to allow students to become familiar with these notions and

their implications.

At the heat of this perspective- in theory and in practice-

inheres in taking human difference seriously.
