Education, Multiple Intelligence, & TechnologyEducation, Multiple Intelligence, & Technology

According to Howard Gardner: * Schools tend to teach in only two forms of human intelligence: - Language and Logic; while ignoring the other forms

* We all encompass the Eight forms of Intelligence, it is what "makes us human."

* Technology tends to be called "the solution" for our educational problems. Yet if not implemented properly, it tends to fail; educational TV, slide show projectors, etc...

* In order to make technology effective we must declare our educational goals, and demonstrate how a particular technology can help us to achieve them. We just also provide technical assistance.


Education, Multiple Intelligence, & TechnologyEducation, Multiple Intelligence, & Technology

* Technology can be use to tap into the Multiple intelligences - Different software can do different intelligences

* The Internet can help them tap into different resources online, hence they can tap into different subjects; music, math, etc..

* Tapping into the different Intelligence allows us to better educate our students. Different students learn in different ways; therefore teaching in an array of methods, allows us to better teach our students. * According to Gardner, Educational and Technology will only succeed, if: "those in charge with education remain clear on what they want to achieve for our children and vigilant that the technology serves these needs." - Howard Gardner
