How do you imagine that Howard Gardner would respond to a concerned parent seeking guidance who asks, "How can I get my Kristen more motivated to achieve in school? She is starting to fall behind in both reading and math! All she wants to do is get outside and play softball! " How would Dr. Gardner foster intrapersonal intellignece in this student? Interpersonal intelligence?…
Whether at a job, at home, or in between, any experience can be just as educational as a class at a university. In “Blue Collar Brilliance”, the author, Mike Rose, uses anecdotes from his family’s experiences to prove how although his family members might not have had much formal education, they all were “intelligent” due to the lessons they learned at work. Given my family’s own experience, I can attest to that. Throughout all of the generations of my family, half have attended a traditional university, while the others went to work or had a different experience, some even had both.…
What is intelligence? Is it Intelligence Quotient measures or “common sense”, “street knowledge”, even “the ability to process information properly”. Intelligence not only means being intelligent in a single way, but being intelligent in multiple ways. The works of Howard Gardner and Gerald Graff both elaborate on what it is to be intelligent and how the school system should encourage or make available different strategies for students to truly succeed in school and in life. Although Gerald Graff’s view points have a more relevance in todays approach in teaching, Howard Garner’s theories are better well structured and better to follow in todays school education system.…
I would love to have dinner with Howard Gardner. My first question for him would be Is Multiple Intelligences really a theory? Then, could it be confirmed or disconfirmed by experiment? I would hope to learn firsthand from Mr. Gardner could educators improve education by addressing the multiple intelligences of our children. I believe talking with Mr. Gardner we together can inform the early childhood education educators that human potential can be tied to one’s preferences to learning; thus, Gardner’s focus on human potential lies in the fact that people have a unique blend of capabilities and skills (intelligences).…
Howard Gardner argues that humans have a bunch of different intellectual competencies which he calls intelligences. His definition of an intelligence is an ability or set of abilities the permits an individual to solve problems that are of consequence in a particular cultural setting. Therefore each intelligence allows us to adapt to our societies and surroundings. He believes that each intelligence develops on its own and may operate its own area of the brain. His seven intelligences are linguistic, musical, logical-mathematical, spatial, bodily-kinesthetic, intrapersonal, interpersonal and naturalistic.…

Intelligence breaks down into specific categories. Howard Gardner’s Multiple Intelligences lists and explains various intelligences. Throughout his theory, Gardner attempts to prove how people can have and gain more knowledge outside the…
Robert J. Sternberg and Howard Gardner are two incredible psychologists whom have had much success in their work. The fact that these two psychologists took an interest in the intelligence of others and break it down into a more knowledgeable frame, is outstanding. If you look at the main point of view, intelligence, you will see an interesting correlation to each other’s work and theories, but also, you will see a divergence. I would like to talk about Robert J. Sternberg’s Triarchic Theory of Intelligence and Howard Gardner’s Theory of Multiple Intelligences. There are many interesting concepts, similarities, and differences in their theories.…

During my experience in an ESL class I saw many of our course objectives come to life. The program was rather small but I witnessed many ways the teacher adjust lessons to meet the needs of students who are still learning english. During my visit I saw many different scaffolding that helped the students during different assignments and lessons. In class we learned how important scaffolding is in classroom with Ells. For a reading assignments the teacher used a tchart so that information can be organized to the learners.…

This philosophy insists that I teach students skills and strategies to become efficient. I also think Multiple Intelligences should guide instruction. Multiple intelligences identifies which learning style best supports a student’s learning. We all learn in different ways, and that is especially true in a special education classroom. I plan to assess students’ preferential learning style to guide instruction.…
(1) In your own words, define, then compare and contrast the different theories of intelligence that are presented in the textbook, including Spearman 's G Factor, Gardner 's Multiple Intelligences, Sternberg 's Triarchic Theory and the concept of Emotional Intelligence. Sternberg proposed that there consist three types of intelligence: analytical, creative and practical. Analytic intelligence consists of problem-solving; creative intelligence deals with new ideas, new ways of problem-solving and processing certain aspects of information; practical intelligence, in other words, "street smarts," involves the ways people get through life. In general, these three types of intelligence work systematically to solve problems.…
