Multiple Intelligences.


As we have now learnt, there are no 'smart' or 'dumb' students, but merely students who learn in different ways, this is explained as multiple intelligences, these can also be grouped into three catergories...
Analytic: Logical, Rhythmic, Naturalist
Introspective: Visual, Existential, Intrapersonal
Interactive: Kinesthetic, Interpersonal, Linguistic

Thankyou to the website:

we have become aware, that our own learning style, governs how we will teach others... as i am known to be linguistic, interpersonal or logical, i will be a teacher who uses group work, writing or numbers.
I characterize these three intelligences as interactive because even though they can be stimulated through passive activity they typically invite and encourage interaction to achieve understanding. Even if a student completes a task individually, s/he must consider others through the way s/he writes, creates, constructs and makes conclusions. The interactive intelligences are by their nature social processes.
