A letter from a child
Dear Mummy, Papa and My Teacher
You want me to score high marks. You want me to come
first in class. You want me to excel in studies. I know and understand your
desire for my success. Its for my own good, I have been told. Even I would like
it, but maybe ... in a different way. I want to learn, know, do, make and
understand lots of things. Just not always the ways studies are dished out to
me.
Mummy, if you made one dish for dinner and it turned out
"bad", will you be asked to do it ten times - so that you do not get
it "wrong" the next time? How will you feel? Or if your cooking is
compared to Grandma's. Or you are sent to cooking tuitions. Can you cook better
next time if you are stressed; you are made to feel 'less' or even made to feel
'bad' by a 'red' mark?
Just so,
If I am weak in maths - an extra hour of maths will make me more stressed.
If I cannot concentrate while reading - more reading or comparison with others
will give me signals I am less than others.
If I am not remembering my lesson - mugging and demand for more revision will
make me hate learning.
If I misspell - writing more and more mechanically will stop me venturing into
any other writing or reading events.
Think:
I am weak in Maths but I like cricket - Can I count, add, multiply, or do
fraction with my favorite cricket team - My interests are taken care - Now I am
even ready to explore why pitches need a particular type of sand? How
sedimentary rocks are made? And so on.
If I cannot concentrate on the reading book - but I like
watching TV - Can I read how cartoons are made? Can I read how TV works? Can I
write about my favorite characters, or what was the best I liked from that
show?
I may not be remembering the lesson - but I have a good imagination and can visualize
a lot –
Can I make symbols and story for the entire history
lesson I need to remember. Since visual memory is more reliable and efficient,
can I draw big picture collages of the whole lesson and enjoy it while
remembering it for the exam.
I misspell few words, not all - can we see how these words are made, can you
show me another strategy to learn spelling or play some game on dictionary so I
develop love for words.
As a child I want to excel. I want to see you (my
parents) happy and proud of me. Standard methods seem not to work with me
(possibly did not work with you also). Pressure, push and stress does not make
me motivated to work on my weaknesses.
I would also like to tell you how I enjoy learning. (I
am sure the same applies to you also as a learner). If you keep this in mind, I
will be more happy, more successful and more motivated to learn.
1. I learn best when I enjoy what is to be learned when
it is interesting. Just as you add so many spices and cook my dinner in various
ways - you make it so yummy! Can you make my studies yummy too! I am smart in
some ways and not so smart in some ways. I have my own natural ways of
learning. If you could understand my ways of learning, just as you have
understood my ways of eating, then excellence is only a matter of time.
2. Just as you cook the same potato in many different
ways, can the same subject or concept be presented to me in different ways. Can
you tailor it my way of being smart?
3. Don't I eat most voraciously the food which I like most?
Yet my brother’s preferences are different. Is there any need for you to
compare me with my brother? Aren’t; we just smart in different ways. I wish you
could focus on my ways of being smart and treat both of as equally smart.
4. Just as hunger is natural to my tummy so is learning
natural to my brain. I want to learn all the time.
>> Only I want to be stimulated instead of instructed.
>> I want to be encouraged instead of compared.
>> I want to be challenged instead of forced.
5. I eat best when you eat with me, not feed me.
Similarly I learn best when I see you as a co-learner not a teacher.
Let me leave you with a simple quote by Winston
Chirchill, "I may not like being taught, but I am always ready to learn.”
Yours loving
The multiple intelligences
theory was first published in 1983 in Gardner’s book,
frames of mind: the theory of multiple intelligences. Gardner derived his
theory from extensive brain research, which included interviews, tests, and
research on hundred of individuals. He Studied the cognitive profiles of stroke
and accident victims, prodigies, autistic individuals, those with learning
disabilities, idiot savants, and people from diverse cultures.
He concluded
that inteliigence is not one inborn fixed trait that dominates the skills and
problem-solving abilities students possess. Gardner ’s theory
doesn’t question the existence of a general intelligence but probes the
possibilities of intelligences not covered by one concept. His research
suggested that intelligence is centered in many different areas of the brain,
which are interconnected, rely upon one can work independently if needed. And
can be developed with the right environmental conditions. Gardner ’s finding
shook the educational community, which had become very comfortable with the
notion that intelligence was a singular, genetic quality, measurable by a
paper-and –pencil test such as the Stanford-Binet or WISC Tests.
The
intelligences Gardner recognizes include: verbal-linguistic, math-logic, spatial, bodily-kinesthetic,
musical, interpersonal, intrapersonal , and naturalist. Each intelligence area
is demonstrated through specific talents, Skills, and interests. The fact that
these intelligences can be nurtured and strengthened has monumental influence on
how children should be taught for maximum learning and achievement.
Current brain
research continues to provide Information that we never dreamed of knowing, and
the multiple intelligences theory is helping to add to this wealth of
information. As Gardner continues to research for us to recognize that we’ve learning about
a theory in Progress. Though the multiple intelligences Theory has powerful
implications the world of education, before discussing the ways it can Be put
to practical use in the classroom we must remember that it is not an
educational Prescription.
There is no one
way to use it in the classroom, and many teachers use it in a variety of ways
very successfully. However, if we assume that the multiple intelligences theory
is generally an accurate portrayal of human differences, we can also assume
that some, maybe not all, kids may learn ore easily through some modalities
than others.
As a result of
my work in the classroom, I believe that the multiple intelligences theory can
Be used to motivate and inspire students and provide variety in how we present
information And lessons. Through it I’ve discovered different ways of
personalizing instruction help make children strong readers, writers, thinkers,
mathematicians, artists, musicians, scientists, and Historians.
Gardner provides
this vision within his theory: “If you want to teach something that’s
Important, there’s more than one way to teach it. Multiple intelligences can be
useful as an inventory.” The traditional Chinese saying “let a hundred flowers
bloom” is a wonderful theme for the use of multiple intelligences theory in the
classroom. Being slowly, find what works for you and your students, and than
stand back and breathe in the fragrance of your beautiful, blooming flowers.
The Multiple Intelligences
Verbal-Linguistic
Intelligences involves ease in producing and
sensitivity to the nuances,
Order, and rhythm of words. Students who
are strong in verbal-linguistic intelligence love read, Write, and tell
stories. They have good memories for names, places, dates, and trivia.
professional who use this intelligence
include writers, public speakers, teachers, secretaries,
business and office managers, comedians,
poets, and actors.
Math-Logic
Intelligence relates to the ability to reason
deductively or inductively in this
Intelligence and to recognize and
manipulate abstract patterns and relationships. Students who excel in this
intelligence have strong problem-solving and reasoning skills and questions in
a logical manner. They can also excel in science-related logic and
problem-solving. This
intelligence can be seen in such people as
scientists, bankers, mathematicians, computer
programmers, lawyers, and accountants.
Spatial
Intelligence includes the ability to create
visual-spatial representations of the world
and to transfer them mentally or
concretely. Students who exhibit spatial intelligence need a
mental or physical picture to best
understand new information: do well with maps, charts, and
diagrams: and like mazes and puzzles. They
are strong in drawing, designing, and creating things. Professionals who use
this intelligence include graphic artists. Cartographers, draftspersons,
architects, painters, and sculptors.
Musical
Intelligence encompasses sensitivity to the
pitch. Timbre, and rhythm of sounds
As well as responsiveness to the emotional
implications of these elements of music. Students
Who remember melodies or recognize pitch
and rhythm exhibit musical intelligence. They enjoy Listening to music and are
aware of surrounding sounds, This intelligence is seen in such people as
singers and songwriters, rock musicians, dancers, composers, and music
teachers.
Bodily-Kinesthetic
Intelligence involves using your body to solve
problems, make things, and convey ideas and emotions. Students who are strong
in this intelligensce are good at physical activities, hand-eye coordination,
and have a tendency to move around, touch things,
and gesture. Professionals who use this
intelligence include actors, athletes, surgeons, mimes,
musicians, dancers, and inventors.
Interpersonal
Intelligence refers
to the ability to work effectively with other people and
to understand them and recognize their
goals, motivations, and intentions Students who exhibit this intelligences
thrive on cooperative work have strong leadership skills, and are skilled at
organizing, communicating, mediating, and negotiating. (Remember that this
intelligence relates to a person's ability to understand other people but
should not encourage overemphasis on cooperative leaning activities and is not
always found in extroverts. In fact. Some extroverts I've known are weak in
this area as they talk over, around, and alongside others on a regular Basis)
This intelligence is usually seen in such people as teachers, therapists,
Salespeople, counselors, politicians, religious leaders, and business
executives.
Intrapersonal
Intelligence entails the ability to understand
one's own emotions, goals,
and intentions .Students strong in
intrapersonal intelligence have a strong sense of self, are
confident, and can enjoy working alone.
They have good instincts about their strengths and
abilities. (This intelligence is difficult
to observe. The only way to identify it may be by watching students and
analyzing their work habits and products. Also. It's important to be careful
not to automatically label students who enjoy working alone or who are
introverts as being strong in this
intelligence.) this intelligence is highly developed in such people as
philosophers, psychiatrists, religious leaders, and brain researchers.
