Multiple Intelligence
Theorist: Howard Gardner
Gardner's trailblazing book revolutionized the worlds of education and psychology by positing that rather than a single type of intelligence, we have several--most of which are neglected by standard testing and educational methods.
This book includes updated information and resources throughout the text to help educators at all levels apply MI theory to curriculum development, lesson planning, assessment, special education, cognitive skills, educational technology, career development, educational policy, and more.
This response to Lynn Waterhourse’s critiques of the Multiple Intelligences theory(MI) that reorients and clarifies for the reader the usefulness and implications of MI theory with the goal of demonstrating why Waterhouse’s critique misses the mark in a number of respects.
