(Multiple Intelligences Learning Styles)(Multiple Intelligences Learning Styles) 25. What is intelligence? According to Gardner, intelligence is the capacity to solve problems or to fashion products that are valued in one or more cultural settings (Gardner & Hatch, 1989) all societies value different types of intelligences (Gardner, 1983) 26. Howard Gardner claims we all possess all of these intelligences but in varying degrees of strength, skill and limitation just as we all look different and have unique personalities and temperaments, we also have different profiles of intelligences no one kind of intelligence is better than another each intelligence has its own sphere of expertise intelligences are independent of each another. 27. Gardners 8 Intelligences are: 1. Logical-mathematical (associated with scientific thinking) 2. Verbal-linguistic (the production of language and communication) 3. Musical- rhythmic (recognition and use of sounds) 4. Naturalist (ability to work with nature) 28. 5. Visual-spatial (deals with visual arts) 6. Inter-relational (inter personal skills) 7. Intra-relational (understanding of self) 8. Bodily-kinesthetic (associated with body movements) 29. Who is intelligent? 30. 8 Intelligences by Dr. Howard Gardner 1. Linguistic 2.

Multiple Intelligences An intelligence is the ability to solve problems, or to create products, that are valued within one or more cultural settings ~Howard Gardner Frames of Mind (1983) 40. OHT 3:4:4 E=mc2 Linguistic intelligence Logical mathematical intelligence Visual spatial intelligence Bodily kinaesthetic intelligence Musical intelligence Intrapersonal intelligence Interpersonal intelligence Emotional intelligence Multiple intelligence Naturalistic intelligence Sara Shaw and Trevor Hawes Session 4 Learning Styles and Multiple Intelligences 41. Howard Gardners Multiple Intelligences Linguistic intelligence 42. Linguistic If you have strong linguistic intelligence you might learn better by Reading Memorizing Playing word games (Scrabble, Anagrams, Password) Making up rhymes, puns Using the internet 43. Linguistic Intelligence often called verbal/linguistic intelligence having mastery of language ability to manipulate language to express oneself rhetorically or poetically use language as a means to remember information 44. Verbal/Linguistic intelligence refers to an individual's ability to understand and manipulate words and languages. Everyone is thought to possess this intelligence at some level. This includes reading, writing, speaking, and other forms of verbal and written communication. 45. Teachers can enhance their students' verbal/linguistic intelligence by having them keep journals, play word games, and by encouraging discussion. People with strong rhetorical and oratory skills such as poets, authors, and attorneys exhibit strong Linguistic intelligence. Some examples are T.S. Elliot, Maya Angelou, and Martin Luther King Jr. Traditionally, Linguistic intelligence and Logical/Mathematical intelligence have been highly valued in education and learning environments. 46. Word Smarts 47. are usually good at: Reading fiction and non-fiction Writing letters, reports, scripts etc. Talking Debating Word puzzles 48. are usually good at: Making up and telling jokes Storytelling Emailing Listening to tapes and people Poetry 49. Howard Gardners Multiple Intelligences Linguistic intelligence Logical/Mathematical intelligence 50. Logical/Mathematical Learner If you have strong logical-mathematical intelligence you might learn better by Recording information systematically Setting up experiments (What if?) Playing strategy games (Chess, Checkers) Analyzing data Asking logical questions Using the internet 51. Logical/Mathematical Intelligence ability to detect patterns, reason deductively and think logically often associated with scientific and mathematical thinking 52. Logical/Mathematical intelligence refers to an individual's ability to do things with data: collect, and organize, analyze and interpret, conclude and predict. Individuals strong in this intelligence see patterns and relationships. These individuals are oriented toward thinking: inductive and deductive logic, numeration, and abstract patterns. They would be a contemplative problem solver; one who likes to play strategy games and to solve mathematical problems. 53. Being strong in this intelligence often implies great scientific ability. This is the kind of intelligence studied and documented by Piaget. Teachers can strengthen this intelligence by encouraging the use of computer programming languages, critical-thinking activities, linear outlining, Piagetian cognitive stretching exercises, science-fiction scenarios, logic puzzles, and through the use of logical/sequential presentation of subject matter. Some real life examples people who are gifted with this intelligence are Albert Einstein, Niehls Bohr, and John Dewey. 54. Math/ Logic Smarts 55. are usually good at: Mazes and puzzles Graphing Mathematics and numbers Problem solving Timelines 56. are usually good at: Strategic games and codes Spreadsheets and databases Computer games Patterning and sequencing Fact finding and collecting 57. Howard Gardners Multiple Intelligences Linguistic intelligence Logical/Mathematical intelligence Visual/Spatial intelligence 58. Spatial Learner If you have strong spatial intelligence you might learn better by Studying pictures Watching videos Using visual, tangible aids Doing mazes, puzzles Making predictions Using the internet 59. Visual / Spatial Intelligence gives one the ability to manipulate and create mental images in order to solve problems this intelligence is not limited to visual domains Gardner notes that spatial intelligence is also formed in blind children. 60. Visual/Spatial intelligence refers to the ability to form and manipulate a mental model. Individuals with strength in this area depend on visual thinking and are very imaginative. People with this kind of intelligence tend to learn most readily from visual presentations such as movies, pictures, videos, and demonstrations using models and props. They like to draw, paint, or sculpt their ideas and often express their feelings and moods through art. These individuals often daydream, imagine and pretend 61. They are good at reading diagrams and maps and enjoy solving mazes and jigsaw puzzles. Teachers can foster this intelligence by utilizing charts, graphs, diagrams, graphic organizers, videotapes, color, art activities, doodling, microscopes and computer graphics software. It could be characterized as right-brain activity. Pablo Picasso, Bobby Fischer, and Georgia O'Keefe are some examples of people gifted with this intelligence. 62. Picture Smarts 63. are usually good at: Drawing and painting Cartooning and doodling Reading and making maps Sketching and illustrating Making murals, charts, posters, collages, statues and mobiles 64. are usually good at: Photography Creating and understanding films Making constructions and models 65. Howard Gardners Multiple Intelligences Linguistic intelligence Logical/Mathematical intelligence Visual/Spatial intelligence Musical intelligence 66. Musical Learner If you have strong musical intelligence you might learn better by Listening to recordings Talking to yourself Making up songs Mentally repeating information Reading aloud Changing tempo 67. Musical Intelligence encompasses the capability to recognize and compose musical pitches, tones, and rhythms auditory functions are required for a person to develop this intelligence in relation to pitch and tone, but it is not needed for the knowledge of rhythm 68. Musical intelligence refers to the ability to understand, create, and interpret musical pitches, timbre, rhythm, and tones and the capability to compose music. Teachers can integrate activities into their lessons that encourage students' musical intelligence by playing music for the class and assigning tasks that involve students creating lyrics about the material being taught. Composers and instrumentalists are individuals with strength in this area. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Louis Armstrong are examples. 69. Music Smarts 70. are usually good at: Singing Playing a musical instrument Remembering songs Making up song lyrics Tapping and clapping 71. are usually good at: Writing jingles Composing music Performing music for a group Listening to music Understanding music 72. Howard Gardners Multiple Intelligences Linguistic intelligence Logical/Mathematical intelligence Visual/Spatial intelligence Musical intelligence Bodily-Kinesthetic intelligence 73. Bodily/Kinesthetic Learner If you have strong bodily-kinesthetic intelligence you might learn better by Doing role plays Constructing physical examples Exercising while reviewing Visiting museums, institutions, parks Asking logical questions Using the internet 74. Bodily/Kinesthetic Intelligence ability of ones one mental abilities to coordinate ones own bodily movements this intelligence challenges the popular belief that mental and physical activity are unrelated 75. Bodily/Kinesthetic intelligence refers to people who process information through the sensations they feel in their bodies. These people like to move around, touch the people they are talking to and act things out. They are good at small and large muscle skills; they enjoy all types of sports and physical activities. They often express themselves through dance. 76. Teachers may encourage growth in this area of intelligence through the use of touching, feeling, movement, improvisation, "hands-on" activities, permission to squirm and wiggle, facial expressions and physical relaxation exercises. Some examples of people who are gifted with this intelligence are Michael Jordan, Martina Navratilova, and Jim Carrey. 77. Body Smarts 78. are usually good at: Dancing Sports and athletics Throwing, catching, jumping etc. Building and manipulating 79. are usually good at: Performing, role-playing and drama Shaping and sculpting Keyboarding Experimenting Obstacle Courses 80. Howard Gardners Multiple Intelligences Linguistic intelligence Logical/Mathematical intelligence Visual/Spatial intelligence Musical intelligence Bodily-Kinesthetic intelligence Interpersonal intelligence 81. Interpersonal Learner If you have strong interpersonal intelligence you might learn better by Studying in groups Comparing information with others Interviewing experts Relating personal experiences Being a teamplayer Doing cooperative projects 82. Interpersonal Intelligence ability to recognize feelings, intentions and motivations of others 83. Although Gardner classifies interpersonal and intrapersonal intelligences separately, there is a lot of interplay between the two and they are often grouped together. Interpersonal intelligence is the ability to interpret and respond to the moods, emotions, motivations, and actions of others. Interpersonal intelligence also requires good communication and interaction skills, and the ability show empathy towards the feelings of other individuals. 84. Teachers can encourage the growth of Interpersonal Intelligences by designing lessons that include group work and by planning cooperative learning activities. Counselors and social workers are professions that require strength in this area. Some examples of people with this intelligence include Gandhi, Ronald Reagan, and Bill Clinton. 85. Group Smarts 86. are usually good at: Working with others in a group Communicating with others Group games and challenges Leading a group 87. are usually good at: Debating Sharing with others Caring about other people Questioning and surveying 88. Howard Gardners Multiple Intelligences Linguistic intelligence Logical/Mathematical intelligence Visual/Spatial intelligence Musical intelligence Bodily-Kinesthetic intelligence Interpersonal intelligence Intrapersonal intelligence 89. Intrapersonal Learner If you have strong intrapersonal intelligence you might learn better by Avoiding distractions Establishing personal goals Playing solitary games Setting own pace Working alone Relating personal experiences 90. Intrapersonal Intelligence ability to understand ones own feelings and motivations ability to use that information to regulate ones own life 91. Intrapersonal Intelligence, simply put, is the ability to know oneself. It is an internalized version of Interpersonal Intelligence. To exhibit strength in Intrapersonal Intelligence, an individual must be able to understand their own emotions, motivations, and be aware of their own strengths and weaknesses. Teachers can assign reflective activities, such as journaling to awaken students' Intrapersonal Intelligence 92. . Its important to note that this intelligence involves the use of all others. An individual should tap into their other intelligences to completely express their Intrapersonal Intelligence. Authors of classic autobiographies such as Jean Paul Satre and Frederick Douglas are examples of individuals who exhibited strong Interpersonal Intelligence in their lifetimes. 93. Self Smarts 94. are usually good at: Working independently Writing diaries and journals Poetry Writing autobiographies 95. are usually good at: Setting goals Creative writing Imagining Planning and organising Thinking 96. Howard Gardners Multiple Intelligences Linguistic intelligence Logical/Mathematical intelligence Visual/Spatial intelligence Musical intelligence Bodily-Kinesthetic intelligence Interpersonal intelligence Intrapersonal intelligence Naturalist intelligence 97. Naturalistic Learner If you have strong naturalistic intelligence you might learn better by Studying outside Learning in the presence of plants & pets Relating environmental issues to topics Smelling, seeing touching, tasting, Observing natural phenomenon 98. Naturalist Intelligence ability to recognize and categorize plants, animals and other objects in nature 99. Naturalistic intelligence is seen in someone who recognizes and classifies plants, animals, and minerals including a mastery of taxonomies. They are holistic thinkers who recognize specimens and value the unusual. They are aware of species such as the flora and fauna around them. They notice natural and artificial taxonomies such as dinosaurs to algae and cars to clothes. 100. Teachers can best foster this intelligence by using relationships among systems of species, and classification activities. Encourage the study of relationships such as patterns and order, and compare- and-contrast sets of groups or look at connections to real life and science issues. Charles Darwin and John Muir are examples of people gifted in this way. 101. Nature Smarts 102. are usually good at: Looking after a pet Exploring the natural environment Hiking Touching Reusing, reducing and Recycling 103. are usually good at: Gardening Fishing Star gazing Photography Camping 104. Howard Gardners Multiple Intelligences Linguistic intelligence Logical/Mathematical intelligence Visual/Spatial intelligence Musical intelligence Bodily-Kinesthetic intelligence Interpersonal intelligence Intrapersonal intelligence Naturalist intelligence Existential intelligence 105. Existential Intelligence sensitivity and capacity to tackle deep questions about human existence (i.e., the meaning of life? why do we die? how did we get here?) 106. The ninth intelligence that has yet to experience full acceptance by educators in the classroom. This is Existential intelligence, which encompasses the ability to pose and ponder questions regarding the existence -- including life and death. This would be in the domain of philosophers and religious leaders. 107. Teachers open the door.Teachers open the door. You enter by yourselfYou enter by yourself Chinese proverbChinese proverb 108.

PRINCIPLES OFPRINCIPLES OF LEARNINGLEARNING MRS. ELENA N. MENDOZA 143. PRINCIPLES OF LEARNINGPRINCIPLES OF LEARNING 1. The Learner must clearly perceive the goal. Learners readily understand and internalize concepts and ideas which are relevant to their own needs and problems. 144. 2. The learner must be psychologically and physiologically ready. This principle is in consonance with Thorndikes law of readiness and law of effect. The law of readiness states that when a person is prepared to respond or act, giving the response is satisfying and being prevented from doing so is annoying. The law of effect states that learning is strengthened when it results in satisfaction but is weakened if it leads to annoyance 145. 3. The learner must be motivated to learn. That the learner must be motivated to learn is a basic principle in the teaching-learning process. Every learner in the classroom however, is a unique individual. The learners experiential background varies from learner to learner. 146. Types of Motivation Extrinsic Motivation Intrinsic Motivation It comes in the form of reward and punishment. Means creating a desire to learn a subject because it is worth knowing. 147. Some principles on motivating learnersSome principles on motivating learners which are significant for teachers arewhich are significant for teachers are enumerated below.enumerated below. a. Intrinsic motivation is better than extrinsic motivation. b. Goal setting is an important motivational aspect of learning. c. Successful experiences are important motivators. d. Feedback about ones progress can be an effective motivation. 148. e. Considering learners interest is important in classroom learning. f. Reward rather than punishment is a better motivation for learning. g. Meaningful materials and tasks serve as good motivators. h. Success generally increases the level of aspiration and achievement of the learner. i. Teachers expectations of the learners performance influence the latters achievement. 149. 4.4. The learner must be active notThe learner must be active not passive for maximum learning.passive for maximum learning. This principle is adroitlyThis principle is adroitly expressed in the Chinese adage:expressed in the Chinese adage: I hear and I f orget , I see and I remember, I do and I underst and. 150. 5. The learner must repeat or practice what he has learned in order to remember. Thorndike law of exercise states that constant repetition of a response strengthens its connection with the stimulus and disuse of a response weakens it. Educational practices such as drill, review and examination exemplify this principle 151. 6. The learner must put together the parts of a task and perceive it as a meaningful whole. This is an extension of the principle formulated by the Gestalt school of psychology. The principle places emphasis upon the concept that learning is a process of discovering and understanding relationships, and of organizing and finding significance in the sensory experiences aroused by the external situation. 152. 7. The learner must see the significance, meanings, implications, and applications that will make a given experience understandable. (Apperception) 8. The learner must be prepared to respond. A teacher sometimes may encounter situations where learners learn automatically and spontaneously, or learners who are able to perform skills and activities without much apparent effort. These situations can be credited to readiness on the part of the learner. Readiness varies with the different learning tasks and among individuals. Without readiness, much effort, is exerted by the teacher and the learner and this effort may result in little or no learning at all on the part of the learner. 153. 9. The process of problem solving and learning are highly unique and specific. Each individual has his own unique style of learning and solving problems. As individuals become more aware of how they learn and solve problems and become exposed to alternative models used by other individuals, they can modify their personal learning style so that this can be employed more effectively. 154. CONDITIONS WHICH FACILITATECONDITIONS WHICH FACILITATE LEARNINGLEARNING 1. Learning is facilitated in an atmosphere which encourages learners to be active. 2. Learning is facilitated in an atmosphere which promotes and facilitates the individuals discovery of the personal meaning of ideas. 3. Learning is facilitated in an atmosphere in which different ideas can be discussed but not necessarily accepted. 155. 4. Learning is facilitated in an atmosphere in which consistently recognizes the individuals right to make mistakes. 5. Learning is facilitated in an atmosphere in which evaluation is a cooperative process. 6. Learning is facilitated in an atmosphere were individuals feel they are respected and accepted. 156.

Learning is a cooperative and collaborative process. 160. 5. Learning is an evolutionary process. 6. Learning is sometimes a painful process 7. One of the richest resources for learning is the learner himself. 161. 8. The process of learning is emotional as well as intellectual. 9. The process of problem solving and learning are highly unique and individual. 162. Learning Styles 163. The Sensing-Thinking (ST) or Mastery Learner 164. PREFERS TO LEARN BY: seeing tangible results practicing what he has learned following directions one step at a time being active rather than passive knowing exactly what is expected of her, how well the task must be done and why LEARN BEST FROM: drill demonstration practice hands-on experience 165. The Intuitive-thinking (NT) or understanding Learner 166. PREFERS TO LEARN BY: LEARN BEST FROM: studying about ideas and how things are related planning and carrying out a project of his own making and interest arguing or debating a point based on logical analysis problem solving that requires collecting, organizing, and evaluating data lectures reading logical discussions and debates 167. The Sensing-feeling (SF) or interpersonal Learner 168. PREFERS TO LEARN BY: LEARN BEST FROM: studying about things that directly affect peoples lives rather than impersonal facts or theories receiving personal attention and encouragement from his teachers being part of a team collaborating with other students activities that help her learn and about herself and how she feels about things group experiences and projects loving attention Personal expression and personal encounters role playing 169. The intuitive-feeling (NF) or Self- Expressive Learner 170. PREFERS TO LEARN BY: LEARN BEST FROM: being creative and using his imagination planning and organizing her work in her own creative ways working on a number of things at one time searching for alternative solutions to problems beyond those normally considered discussing real problems and looking for real solutions creative and artistic activities open-ended discussions of personal and social values activities than enlighten and enhance myths, human achievement, dramas, etc. 171. I. Goal and Objective Related to Teaching 172. 1. Begin with the end in mind. In the context of teaching, this means that we must begin our lesson with a clearly defined lesson objective, with a clear and specific lesson objective, we will have a sense of direction. 173. 2. Share lesson objective with student. Make known to our students our instructional objective and encourage them to make the lesson objective their own. This lesson objective when share and possessed by our students will become their personal target. 174. 3. Lesson objectives must be in the two or three domains knowledge (cognitive) skills (psychomotor) , and values (affective) A cognitive or skill lesson must always include the affective dimension for wholistic learning. What is most important in this principle is that our lesson is wholistic and complete because it dwells on knowledge and values or on skills and values. 175. 4. Work on significant and relevant lesson objectives. The level of students self- motivation all the more increases when our lesson objective is relevant to their daily life. 176. 5. Lesson objective must be aligned with the aims of education as embodied in the Philippine Constitution and other laws and on the vision-mission statements of the educational institution of which you are a part. This means that the aims and goals of education as provided for in our laws filter down to our lesson objectives. We have something to do with the attainment of our broad aims of education. We can also contribute to the realization of our schools vision-mission statements because our lesson objectives are based on our schools vision-mission statements. 177. 6. For accountability of learning, lesson objectives must be SMART, i,e., Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Result-oriented and Relevant, Time bound and Terminal When our lesson objective is SMART, it is quite easy to find out at the end of our lesson if we attained our objective or not. 178. 7. Aim at the development of critical and creative thinking. If we want to contribute to the development of critical and creative thinkers, the type of citizens needed to make democracy, then we should include in our scope of questions, high- level, divergent, or open-ended questions. 179. II. Teaching Strategy-Related Principles of Teaching and Learning 180. 1. Learning is an active process This means that we have to actively engage the learners in learning activities if we want them to learn to teach. We have to give our students opportunities to participate in classroom activities. (Learning by doing) What I hear, I forget What I see, I remember What I do, I understand 181. 2. The more senses that are involved in learning, the more and the better the learning. The Contribution of the Senses to Learning This implies that visual aids are more effective than audio aids. But a combination of audio and visual aids is far more effective. Most effective of course is the use of a combination of three or more senses, thus the term multi-sensory aids. Sight --75% Hearing --13% Touch --6% Taste --3% Smell --3% 182. 3. A non-threatening atmosphere enhances learning. This conducive atmosphere refers not only to the physical condition of the classroom but more so to the psychological climate that prevails in the classroom. 183. 4. Emotion has the power to increase retention and learning We tend to remember and learn more those that strike our hearts. 184. 5. Learning is meaningful when it is connected to students everyday life. For meaning, connect your teaching to your students everyday life. 185. 6. Good teaching goes beyond recall of information. Most teachings are confined to recall of information and comprehension. Ideally, our teaching should reach the levels of application, analysis, synthesis, and evaluation. 186. 7. An integrated teaching approach is far more effective then teaching isolated bits of information. For effective teaching, it is imperative on our part as teachers to possess a repertoire of teaching and testing strategies and techniques to reach a full range of students with varied learning styles and multiple intelligences. 187. 8. There is no such thing as best teaching method. The best method is the one that works, the one that yields results. 188. Selection and Organization of Content 189. There are dull teachers, dullThere are dull teachers, dull textbooks, dull films, but no dulltextbooks, dull films, but no dull subjects.subjects. 190. Guiding Principles in the Selection and Organization of Content 191. 1. One guiding principle related to subject matter content is to observe the following qualities in the selection and organization of content: a)Validity the content is aligned with the goals and objectives of the BEC b) Significance what we teach should respond to the needs and interests of the learners, hence meaningful and significant. 192. c) Balance Content includes not only facts but also concepts and values. This includes cognitive, psychomotor and effective elements. d) Self-sufficiency content fully covers the essentials. Learning is not mile- wide- and-inch-deep. The essentials are sufficiently covered and are treated in depth. e) Interests the teacher considers the interest of the learners, their developmental stages and cultural and ethnic background. 193. f) Utility will this content be of use to the learners? It is meant not only to be memorized for test and grade purposes. What is learned has a function even after examination are over. g) Feasibility The content is feasible in the sense that it can be covered within the school year. That is why teachers tend to rush towards the end of the school year, do superficial teaching and contribute to non-mastery of content. 194. 2. At the base of the structure of cognitive subject matter content is facts We cant do away with facts but be sure to go beyond facts by constructing an increasingly richer and more sophisticated knowledge base and by working out a process of conceptual understanding 195. 3. Subject matter content is an integration of cognitive, skill and affective elements. When we teach facts, concepts principles theories and laws, it necessitates the skill of seeing the relationships among these in order to see meaning. Likewise when our subject matter is focused on the thinking and manipulative skills, out lesson content also has cognitive content. More so with the teaching of values, for values have definitely a cognitive basis. The cognitive lesson may be used as a vehicle in the teaching of skills and values.
