Multiple Intelligence

Howard Gardner’s theory of multiple intelligences has given us great insight into the way people learn. Gardner’s theory encompasses nine different bits of intelligence.
Multiple intelligences refers to a theory describing the different ways students learn and acquire information. These multiple intelligences range from the use of words, numbers, pictures and music, to the importance of social interactions, introspection, physical movement and being in tune with nature.
We sometimes feel guarded about sharing new ideas with others. Role-storming is a type of brainstorming which helps decrease these inhibitions through fun, foolishness, and laughter. Use this technique to encourage idea sharing and to view things with a new perspective.
