Why Use Multiple Intelligences Reach students you normally don’t reach Stretch students in all directions Begin to value all different kinds of people Spice up you teaching/life Gain the ability to teach differently (as opposed to louder and more often) Become everyone's favorite teacher In the News

Look Familiar?
4
Verbal/Linguistic Intelligence This intelligence, which is related to words and language both written and spoken, dominates most Western educational systems. Verbal linguistic intelligence is awakened by the spoken word, by reading someone's ideas thoughts, or poetry, or by writing one's own ideas, thoughts, or poetry, as well as by various kinds of humor such as "plays on words," jokes, and "twists" of the language.
5
Verbal/Linguistic Intelligence Capacities involved: --understanding order & meaning of words --convincing someone of a course of action --explaining, teaching, and learning --humor --memory & recall --"meta-linguistic" analysis
6
Logical/Mathematical Intelligence Often called "scientific thinking," this intelligence deals with inductive and deductive thinking/reasoning, numbers, and the recognition of abstract patterns. Logical mathematical intelligence is activated in situations requiring problem solving or meeting a new challenge as well as situations requiring pattern discernment and recognition.
7
Logical/Mathematical lntelligence Capacities involved: --abstract pattern recognition --inductive reasoning --deductive reasoning --discerning relationships & connections --performing complex calculations --scientific reasoning
8
Visual/Spatial Intelligence This intelligence, which relies on the sense of sight and being able to visualize an object, includes the ability to create internal mental images/pictures. Visual/spatial intelligence is triggered by presenting the mind with and/or creating unusual, delightful, and colorful designs, patterns, shapes, and pictures, and engaging in active imagination through such things as visualization guided imagery, and pretending exercises.
9
Visual/Spatial Intelligence Capacities involved: --active imagination --forming mental images --finding your way in space --image manipulations --graphic representation --recognizing relationships of objects in space --accurate perception from different angles
10
Body/Kinesthetic Intelligence This intelligence is related to physical movement and the knowing/wisdom of the body. Including the brain's motor cortex, which control bodily motion.
11
Body/kinesthetic intelligence is awakened through physical movement such as in various sports, dance, and physical exercises as well as by the expression of oneself through the body, such as inventing, drama, body language, and creative/interpretive dance. Body/Kinesthetic Intelligence
12
--control of "voluntary" movements --control of "preprogrammed" movements --expanding awareness through the body --the mind and body connection --mimetic abilities --improved body functioning
13
Musical/Rhythmic Intelligence This intelligence is based on the recognition of tonal patterns, including various environmental sounds, and on a sensitivity to rhythm and beats. Musical/rhythmic intelligence is turned on by the resonance or vibrational effect of music and rhythm on the brain, including such things as the human voice, sounds from nature, musical instruments, percussion instruments, and other humanly produced sounds.
14
Musical/Rhythmic Intelligence Capacities involved: --appreciation for the structure of music --schemes or frames in the mind for hearing music --sensitivity to sounds --recognition, creation, and reproduction of melody/rhythm --sensing characteristic qualities of tone
15
Interpersonal Intelligence This intelligence operates primarily through person-to-person relationships and communication. Interpersonal intelligence is activated by person-to-person encounters in which such things as effective communication, working together with others for a common goal, and noticing distinctions among persons are necessary and important.
16
Interpersonal Intelligence Capacities involved: --effective verbal/non-verbal communication --sensitivity to other's moods, temperaments, motivations, and feelings --working cooperatively in a group --ability to discern other's underlying intentions and behavior --"passing over" into the perspective of another --creating and maintaining synergy
17
Intra-personal Intelligence This intelligence relates to inner states of being, self-reflection, metacognition (i.e. thinking about thinking), and awareness of spiritual realities. Intra-personal intelligence is awakened when we are in situations that cause introspection and require knowledge of the internal aspects of the self, such as awareness of our feelings, thinking processes, self-reflection, and spirituality.
18
Intra-personal Intelligence Capacities involved: --concentration of the mind --mindfulness --metacognition --awareness and expression of different feelings --transpersonal sense of the self --higher-order thinking and reasoning
