| Summary: | The singular revolution in cognitive science and education that is changing how we think about intelligence and the human mind. Now, in this dynamic presentation for the classroom, Howard Gardner presents MI theory and reveals what is at stake--for learning, understanding, and assessment. Setting his presentation within a sweeping history of changing ideas about the human brain and the nature of 'mental representations', Gardner powerfully contrasts new views in two critical areas of thought: 'intelligence' and 'understanding'. From the first I.Q. test to B.F. Skinner, from psychometric testing to the recent publication of The Bell curve, Gardner illustrates how outmoded views of the human mind continue to dominate our ideas about learning, teaching, and intelligence. Gardner proposes techniques to 'teach for understanding', and explains the role of 'understanding-performances' in learning assessment. He wraps this extraordinary presentation with a stirring call for the appropriate matching of technologies and MI perspectives with the differing needs and intelligences of children. "Engaging. An extremely valuable resource. Gardner ties it all together--the science, the theory, and the diverse implications." -- Jean Kilbourne, Ed. D., Author, Lecturer, Filmmaker Multiple Intelligences theory. |
