MI Chapter 1

This first chapter focused primarily on the different intelligences. Having eight different yet unique learning types can be a little overbearing sometimes for teachers to adapt to. Language, numbers, physically touching something, are all ways that some people use to understand what they are learning, memorizing, or whatever might be the occasion. This chapter taught me that everyone has the eight intelligences, but some have more of one then the other. Teaching is about applying all these intelligences into a curriculum so that each individual gets a chance to utilize and learn from these techniques. Beside the eight intelligences, there are others like culinary and spiritual, but the eight is a good start. J
