Chapter 5 MI Theory and Curriculum Development

The theory of multiple intelligences will have no impact if it never goes beyond ideas to implementation in the classroom. The focus of this chapter is on methods teachers can use to apply multiple intelligences into their instruction. It struck me how much this theory becomes a part of everything a teacher that believes in it does. Teachers have to constantly be thinking of ways they can implement multiple intelligences into their lessons and make everything they do multidimensional. Students will learn most when they are being given multiple ways to grasp the material, and when they are inspired beyond the classroom with what is being taught. As I look at my future lessons I need to keep the ideas behind multiple intelligence in mind throughout all parts of development.
