2.  Howard Gardner was the creator of MIT  There are 8 different intelligences: logical- mathematical, linguistic, musical, visual, body- kinesthetic, interpersonal, intrapersonal and naturalist  Move towards using it in the classroom?

4.  Have explored each intelligence into great depth  Have researched several different studies/classrooms that have successfully and unsuccessfully implemented MIT… -Positives: makes subject more concrete, makes teaching more effective, creates relationship between real life & math, ensures creative thinking, takes into account individual differences-child centered -Negatives: not suitable for all math subjects, time problem, hard prep, working in groups  -Guiding Question: How can applying MI better address a teachers curriculum?

5.  Primary: - “Positive and Negative Reflections of Maths Teaching Carried out in Learning Environment Designed Based on Multiple Intelligence Theory” by Ramazan Gurbuz - “Examining the Effects of Multiple Intelligence Instruction on Math Performance “ by M.L. Dillihunt  Secondary: - “Teach Mathematics: Strategies to Reach All Students” by Joseph Furner - “An Analysis of Teaching Styles in Primary and Secondary School Teachers based on the Theory of Multiple Intelligences” by Tajularipin Sulaiman, Aminuddin Hassan, and Hor Yen Yi Experiential: The Exploratorium  Experiential: -

6.  I would still like to focus my research the effects on the students when using MIT to teach math  I would like to research more criticisms for the use of MIT in teaching math  Possibly see the effects MIT has on students of different ethnicities/backgrounds

7.  Unit Lesson Plan: -5-10 days addressing/using 8 intelligences: formally address different learners in my class -Stations  Teachers Workshop: -share experiences: what worked/didn’t work, what kinds of learners in your class? -collaborate ideas for possible MIT applications in your respective classrooms
