Theory of Multiple Intelligence (Howard Gardner)



"Kids go to school and college and get through, but they don't seem to really care about using their minds. School doesn't have the kind of long term positive impact that it should."

-- Howard Gardner




Multiple Intelligence
Howard Gardner has identified seven distinct intelligence. Gardner (1991) purposed that children possess different kinds of minds and therefore learn, remember, perform, and understand in different ways. According to this theory, "we are all able to know the world through language, logical-mathematical analysis, spatial representation, musical thinking, the use of the body to solve problems or to make things, an understanding of other individuals, and an understanding of ourselves. Where individuals differ is in the strength of these intelligence - the so-called profile of intelligence -and in the ways in which such intelligence are invoked and combined to carry out different tasks, solve diverse problems, and progress in various domains."





The learning styles are as follows:


1. Verbal-Linguistic: words and language
2. Visual-Spatial: 3D picture and motion
3. Mathematical-Logical: calculation and thinker
4. Musical-Rhythmic: songs and music
5. Bodily-Kinesthetic: body movement and hands-on activities
6. Interpersonal: an understanding and interaction of others
7. Intrapersonal: an understanding of ourselves
8. Naturalist:the nature



These are the Apps for multiple intelligence!
