Howard Gardner

Hello Friends!!!

                   

The new topic of this week is of  a very important person in contribution to Education.

Howard Gardner, is a Psychologist and teacher. He estudied in the university Harvard, he was investigator in all study area educational in EE.UU. In 1983 published the book with the name Theory of multiple intelligences, and in 1990  he recieved the Grawmeyer Education Award of the University of Lousville. He says there is no single intelligent in humans, because there are many intelligents with significant development potencial. Every person develop one intelligence more than another.

Gardner speak of eight basic types of intelligence:

1. Spatial

2. Linguistic (read, write, tell tales with easily)

3. Logical-mathematical (arithmetic problems)

4.Bodily-kinesthetic (body sensation; sport or dance)

5. Musical  (songs and sounds)

6. Interpersonal (group leader and empathy)

7. Intrapersonal (to know yourself and interior life)

8. Naturalistic (comunication with nature)

I like this psychologist because his theory is very important in  the contribution of the development of students in different levels school. And also I learned that the kids to show the best of them. I am able to do good school activities. 

Search in google, write Howard Gardner, you will not regret!!! ;)
