Multiple IntelligenceIntelligence Examples of instructional
activities
Intrapersonal Activities that might be completed through reflective individual projects
Spatial / Visual Matching illustrations, photos or cartoons with corresponding subject categories; creating/evaluating site layouts (i.e.’ safe workplaces’)
Logical-Mathematical Analyzing relevant statistical data, creating graphic representations (charts, diagrams, etc.); devising a strategy to identify hazards of falls; conducting relevant measurements
Interpersonal Activities that might be designed to incorporate cooperative learning groups

Class Content
Classes were developed targeting falls from height in construction
• The hazards of working at heights• The consequences of falls from height• The use of mobile work platforms• The preventative measures• The formulation of a personal method statement

Content
• The content as been presented in a clear and understandable way
• Content presented through a case study or narrative
• Content presented through diagrams or pictures
• The level of content interactivity• Content presented through forums, web chats
and real time instruction• Access to the archived content.

Role of Instructor
• The level of interaction learner had with instructor
• The degree to which the learner seen the instructor as a
– Motivator– Facilitator– Lead Speaker.

Learning Community
• The ability of the learners to interact with each other
• The ability of learners to interact with the instructor
• The ability to share knowledge with the rest of the participants.

Degree of Personalisation
• Their ability to access the content they need
• Their ability to choose what they want to learn
• Their ability to control the learning process• The degree to which the virtual class
records their learning progress and performance.

Conclusion
• The interaction between the instructor, the learner and the content is key to the success of a virtual class.
• The theory of multiple intelligence is a useful tool in humanising the virtual class experience.
• The use of virtual classes involves changes to the roles of instructors, learners and educational content.
