justtrumble23How to incorporate multiple intelligences into the classroom
-
Drawing a picture, composing, or listening to music, watching a performance -- these activities can be a vital door to learning -- as important as writing and mathematics.
-
Studies show that many students who perform poorly on traditional tests are turned on to learning when classroom experiences incorporate artistic, athletic, and musical activities.
-
You will provide opportunities for authentic learning based on your students' needs, interests and talents.
-
acts like the "real" world:
-
tudents become more active, involved learners.
-
This happens as students demonstrate work before panels and audiences. Activities involving apprenticeship learning bring members of the community into the learning process.
-
Students will be able to demonstrate and share their strengths.
-
Building strengths gives a student the motivation to be a "specialist." This can in turn lead to increased self-esteem.
-
When you "teach for understanding," your students accumulate positive educational experiences and the capability for creating solutions to problems in life.

What are some benefits of using the multiple intelligences approach in my school?
Benefit
You may come to regard intellectual ability more broadly. Drawing a picture, composing, or listening to music, watching a performance -- these activities can be a vital door to learning -- as important as writing and mathematics. Studies show that many students who perform poorly on traditional tests are turned on to learning when classroom experiences incorporate artistic, athletic, and musical activities.
Take music, for example. As educator, David Thornburg of the Thornburg Institute notes,
"The mood of a piece of music might communicate, clearer than words, the feeling of an era being studied in history. The exploration of rhythm can help some students understand fractions. The exploration of the sounds of an organ can lead to an understanding of vibrational modes in physics. What caused the great scientist Kepler to think of the motions of planets in musical terms? Astronomy students could program a synthesizer to play Kepler's 'music of the spheres' and explore history, science, math and music all at once."
Benefit
You will provide opportunities for authentic learning based on your students' needs, interests and talents. The multiple intelligence classroom acts like the "real" world: the author and the illustrator of a book are equally valuable creators. Students become more active, involved learners.
Benefit
Parent and community involvement in your school may increase. This happens as students demonstrate work before panels and audiences. Activities involving apprenticeship learning bring members of the community into the learning process.
