Multiple Intelligences: The Theory in Practice

Multiple Intelligences: The Theory in Practice

<DIV>Howard Gardner's brilliant conception of individual competence is changing the face of education today. In the ten years since the publication of his seminal <i>Frames of Mind</i> , thousands of educators, parents, and researchers have explored the practical implications of <i>Multiple Intelligences</i> (MI) theory—the powerful notion that there are separate human capacities, ranging from musical intelligence to the intelligence involved in understanding oneself. <i>Multiple Intelligences: The Theory in Practice</i> brings together previously published and original work by Gardner and his colleagues at Project Zero to provide a coherent picture of what we have learned about the educational applications of MI theory from projects in schools and formal research over the last decade.</Div></div>
