Multiple Intelligences The Theory
  • Pluralistic view of the mind
  • People have different cognitive strengths and
    contrasting cognitive styles
  • There are biological links to particular
    intelligences

4
What Is An Intelligence?
  • Raw, biological potentials
  • Each must have an identifiable core operation or
    set of operations

5
Linguistic Intelligence
  • Sensitivity to phonological features
  • A specific part of the brain is responsible for
    grammatical sentences

6
Linguistic Examples
Poets such as T. S. Eliot Journalists and Writers
7
Intrapersonal Intelligence
  • A correlative ability turned inward
  • A capacity to form an accurate model of oneself
    and be able to use that model to operate
    effectively in ones life

8
Logical-Mathematical Intelligence
  • The logical and mathematical ability as well as
    scientific ability
  • Examples scientists, mathematicians

9
Spatial Intelligence
  • The ability to form a mental model of a spatial
    world and be able to maneuver and operate using
    that model.
  • Examples Sailors, engineers, surgeons,
    sculptors,and painters

10
Musical Intelligence
  • Sensitivity to pitch relations
  • Examples
  • Musicians and composers

11
Bodily-Kinesthetic Intelligence
  • Ability to solve problems using ones whole body.
  • Examples Dancers, athletes, surgeons, and
    craftspeople

12
Interpersonal Intelligence
  • Ability to understand other people, what
    motivates them, how they work, and how to work
    cooperatively with them.
  • Examples politicians, teachers, and clinicians.

13
The Multiple Intelligence School
  • Based on
  • Not all people have the same interests and
    abilities and not all of us learn in the same
    way.
  • No one person can learn everything
  • When I plan my lessons I take these assumptions
    into consideration. Inside my lesson plan book I
    have a Multiple Intelligences Smart Card which
    gives me activities I can do that address
    specific intelligences.

14
Educational Implications
  • Curriculum should be presented in a plethora of
    ways
  • Assessment of students should be developmentally
    appropriate

15
My Personal Philosophy
  • I believe children have individual learning
    styles and every child can learn.
  • I agree with the theory of multiple intelligences
    and have seen evidence of these intelligences in
    my classroom with my children.
