Multiple Intelligences: study for success
The study of Multiple Intelligences can be summarized as
follows:
1. Howard Gardner created the Theory of Multiple Intelligences.
2. Multiple Intelligences determine the manner in which people
process information and make meaning of contents.
3. There are 9 Multiple Intelligences:
1. Logical/Mathematical
2. Verbal/Linguistic
3. Bodily/Kinesthetic
4. Visual/Spatial
5. Musical/Rhythmical
6. Intrapersonal
7. Interpersonal
8. Naturalistic
9. Existential
4. Everyone has many Intelligences, though some are stronger
than others.
5. One has to be careful not to label people based on their
strongest intelligence.
6. Each Intelligence has the potential to be developed; it is
learnable.
7. The application of this theory makes studying exciting, which
brings enthusiasm and joy into learning.
8. The theory of Multiple Intelligences is encompassing and
therefore, more democratic.
Now, how do students use their MI to study for success? Here are
some examples:
1. Logical/Mathematical Your subject has to make sense to you.
Create ways by which you can find patterns or solve problems.
Puzzles work wonders for you.
2. Verbal/Linguistic Use words as much as you can. Speak aloud;
discuss the topics with other people. Create mnemonics, word
games.
3. Bodily/Kinesthetic Write things down, walk around while
studying; play with something, for instance, play dough or a
slinky. Keep
Mixed Reaction To Obama Business Tax Breaks Plan
Some think the proposal will be another cash-for-clunkers-style tax break that probably won't have much of a long-term impact. But others are more enthusiastic about the plan to allow U.S. companies to write-off all investments through 2011.
Purple Hearts Elusive For Traumatic Brain Injuries
<strong>NPR News/ProPublica Investigation:</strong> Army commanders have routinely denied Purple Hearts to soldiers who have sustained mild traumatic brain injuries in Iraq, despite regulations that make such wounds eligible for the medal.
moving.
4. Visual/Spatial Create images, graphs. Draw pictures, maps;
use Graphic Organizers.
5. Musical/Rhythmical Keep clicking your pen (but not in front
of others as you will drive them crazy), beat on the table,
listen to music; create sounds and rhythm. This is the best
opportunity for you to do a rap of your subject.
6. Intrapersonal Keep checking how you are feeling. Find ways to
feel good about what you are studying. Think about the rewards
of studying and how you will feel about them.
7. Interpersonal You need a partner, at least. Study groups are
the best for you. Find a buddy and study together. You can use
your other MI to make studying a success.
8. Naturalistic Create tables, categories, outlines, lists,
classifications. Summarize your topic using bullets.
9. Existential Use candles and incense, create a study heaven.
Surround yourself with beautiful things: paintings, colors,
objects, flowers. Feed your soul.
So we see that Multiple Intelligences are great for studying.
Imagine doing it in a way that is more natural to you. Not only
you will learn faster and better but you will also have fun in
the process.
