Class In Session: Individuation and Pluralization with Dr. Howard Gardner
from BustED Pencils Hosted by Civic Media
Class, this is a truly special session. Dr. Howard Gardner, renowned psychologist and educator who developed the Theory of Multiple Intelligences, now joins the ranks of Pencil Busters! In 1983, Dr. Gardner rattled the very foundation of education when he proposed that there were more ways to be "intelligent" than could be represented on the Stanford Binet IQ test. Rather, Howard asserted, every human being possesses natural strengths and affinities that we can term intelligence. Over 40 years later, Howard is still advancing the causes of excellent education and recognition of each person's talents. He joins us to discuss how teachers can 'spend less time in the weeds' and more time 'putting it all together' when it comes to navigating educational materials and each student's individual needs. For Dr. Gardner's latest written works, go to his webpage. Also make sure to check out The Good Project for materials on promoting excellence, engagement, and ethics in education.
