Synopsis

This outstanding resource offers an accurate reflection of Howard Gardner's "Theory of Multiple Intelligences" -- and the knowledge to extend this theory to effective classroom practice. This book describes implications for pedagogy, team teaching, student strengths, curriculum, assessment, community involvement, and diverse classroom models. Designed for the teacher who wishes to teach effectively to all types of learners. The authors devote one chapter to each of the eight intelligences: Verbal-Linguistic, Logical-Mathematical, Kinesthetic, Visual-Spatial, Musical, Interpersonal, Intrapersonal, and Naturalist. They define the intelligence, provide a checklist for identifying it, suggest environmental considerations, and offer related teaching strategies. Additional chapters survey Gardner's recent work on teaching for understanding, performance-based assessment, and model MI school programs and student outcomes. For classroom teachers, school psychologists, and anyone with an interest in intelligences.
