The capacity to think intelligently is very different from knowing lots of information. And here at last is where our multiple intelligences can make their contribution. Instead we can learn about it in many different ways, using our multiple intelligences, and that concept or topic is much more likely to remain with us, embedded in our neural networks, and to be usable in flexible and innovative ways. |

Resources and Links nArmstrong, T. (2000). Multiple intelligences in the classroom. Alexandria, VA: ASCD. nThis book provides an overview of Gardner’s theories. It contains a multitude of resources for the classroom teacher who wants to implement Multiple Intelligences theories in his/her instruction. There are ideas for teaching the theory directly to students, ways to identify student strengths, and strategies for assessment. n

Cedarville, Ohio. (retrieved June 12, 2007 from Eric Document Service, ERIC no. ED490019). nA master’s thesis studying the relationship between MI instruction and achievement. The study notes the lack research in this area especially in secondary situations. The author found that there was evidence that MI theory has a positive impact on student learning.

The study found that student engagement increased and negative classroom behaviors were drastically reduced after the implementation of these strategies.

nThis article takes a closer look at how teachers can encourage their students to enhance student learning through an increased knowledge of intelligence types. By implementing Gardner’s Multiple Intelligences Theory into classroom curriculum we will increase student comprehension of standards.
Thomas, John (2000). Collaborative Groups: A Review of Research on Project-based Learning. Autodesk Foundation. Retrieved 6/12/07. http://imet.csus.edu/imet2/stanfillj/workshops/pbl/groups.htm. nTeachers are encouraged to apply this theory to give students the opportunity to use their strengths and develop their weaknesses. The prescribed model is to create project-based learning classrooms where teachers group students with diverse intelligences to foster motivation and support for learning.
n nSternberg, R. (Ed.). 1998. Super Teaching San Diego: The Brain Store Inc email: edubrain@connectnet.com nThis article examined the role of human intelligence. It examined how multiple intelligence react creativity, intuitively, as well as constructively. n nSternberg, R. (Ed).2001 Educational Psychology N Y: McGraw Individuals Variation, Theories of Multiple Intelligences, Triarchic Theory(1986) This article looks at three levels of intelligences. The triarchic theory states intelligence come in three forms: analytical, creative, and practical.
n nGardner, H. (Ed.) 2001 Super Teaching San Diego: The Brain Store Inc. email: edubrainedubrain@connectnet.com nThis article examined how multiple intelligence differ from culture to culture. Intelligences are grouped into seven categories.
nGardner, H and Hatch, T (Ed.)1989 Education Psychology Theory And Practice Boston: Allyn & Bacon “Multiple Intelligence goes to school.” Educational Researcher, 18(8), p.6. 1989 by the American Education Research Association. Researchers discover multiple intelligences imply that a teacher must employ a variety of strategies to ensure the success of every student. |
