Multiple Intelligences Chapter 2

Chapter two of Multiple Intelligences talks about how to apply MI theory to oneself before applying it to one’s students. It includes a resource for readers to discover for themselves which intelligences have developed in them.

I am a big proponent of communication within schools, so I could see myself at some point in my career asking an artistically or musically talented colleague to help me with a project, or even just asking questions of somebody who has had different life experiences than I have.
