Multiple Intelligences
How do we learn to understand the world around us?

How do we teach children with special needs?
How do we provide all children with rich educational
experiences without speaking a common language?
How do we reach and teach the “whole child?”

Each Child is a Unique Case
Children differ:TemperamentAptitude Intellect Social competenceEmotional vulnerability
All children are alike in some ways and every child resembles certain children more than others.
Second language complicates the teaching and learning process

Changes in cognitive skills are related to intellectual growth and age
Child’s behavior not just result of external stimuli – but also internal stimuli
Social learning actually leads to cognitive development
Individual differences in children should be recognized and addressed

Frames of Mind
“The ways in which intelligences combine and blend are as varied as the faces and personalities of individuals”
Intelligence is changeable – not stagnant Genetics influences intelligence BUT providing a nurturing, positive, and
stimulating learning environment is very important!
Gardner, 1983

Definition of Intelligence
The ability to solve problems that one encounters in real life
The ability to generate new problems to solve
The ability to make something or offer service that is valued within one’s culture
Gardner, 1983

Research Findings
Intelligence is not fixed at birth. It changes and grows through life. It can be improved and expanded.
Intelligence can be taught and improved by activating levels of perception.
Intelligence is a multiple phenomenon that occurs in many different parts of the brain/mind/body system.
A stronger, more dominant intelligence can be used to train (improve or strengthen) a weaker intelligence.
Most persons possess all intelligences – but in varying strengths (at varying times)
Gardner, 1983

Celebrate Diversity!
“Children are not a can of baked beans…Standardized in the cooking and canning
process”
Avoid the assembly line model of educationin which products have little variability
and uniformity is a virtue
