    HANDOUT 3: THEORIES IN ESP

    Theory of Multiple Intelligences


    by Howard Gardner

    Visual-Spatial - think in terms of physical space, as do architects and sailors. Very aware of their environments.
    They like to draw, do jigsaw puzzles, read maps, daydream. They can be taught through drawings, verbal and
    physical imagery. Tools include models, graphics, charts, photographs, drawings, 3-D modeling, video,
    videoconferencing, television, multimedia, texts with pictures/charts/graphs.

    Bodily-kinesthetic - use the body effectively, like a dancer or a surgeon. Keen sense of body awareness. They
    like movement, making things, touching. They communicate well through body language and be taught
    through physical activity, hands-on learning, acting out, role playing. Tools include equipment and real objects.

    Musical - show sensitivity to rhythm and sound. They love music, but they are also sensitive to sounds in their
    environments. They may study better with music in the background. They can be taught by turning lessons
    into lyrics, speaking rhythmically, tapping out time. Tools include musical instruments, music, radio, stereo,
    CD-ROM, multimedia.

    Interpersonal - understanding, interacting with others. These students learn through interaction. They have
    many friends, empathy for others, street smarts. They can be taught through group activities, seminars,
    dialogues. Tools include the telephone, audio conferencing, time and attention from the instructor, video
    conferencing, writing, computer conferencing, E-mail.

    Intrapersonal - understanding one's own interests, goals. These learners tend to shy away from others.
    They're in tune with their inner feelings; they have wisdom, intuition and motivation, as well as a strong will,
    confidence and opinions. They can be taught through independent study and introspection. Tools include
    books, creative materials, diaries, privacy and time. They are the most independent of the learners.

    Linguistic - using words effectively. These learners have highly developed auditory skills and often think in
    words. They like reading, playing word games, making up poetry or stories. They can be taught by encouraging
    them to say and see words, read books together. Tools include computers, games, multimedia, books, tape
    recorders, and lecture.

    Logical -Mathematical - reasoning, calculating. Think conceptually, abstractly and are able to see and explore
    patterns and relationships. They like to experiment, solve puzzles, ask cosmic questions. They can be taught
    through logic games, investigations, mysteries. They need to learn and form concepts before they can deal
    with details.

    At first, it may seem impossible to teach to all learning styles. However, as we move into using a mix of media
    or multimedia, it becomes easier. As we understand learning styles, it becomes apparent why multimedia
    appeals to learners and why a mix of media is more effective. It satisfies the many types of learning
    preferences that one person may embody or that a class embodies. A review of the literature shows that a
    variety of decisions must be made when choosing media that is appropriate to learning style.
