Does this princpal hold true regardless of the learning objective?
School most strongly reinforces only two kinds of intelligences “Linguistic” and Logical/mathematical” The others that are often left behind are Spatial, Bodily kinesthetic, Musical, Interpersonal, Intrapersonal, and the newly defined Naturalist intelligence. (These kinds of intelligences were defined by Howard Gardner a professor of Education at Harvard who developed the theory of Multiple Intelligences). I can see where spotlighting intelligences usually overlooked would improve the quality of education. It isn’t as clear exactly how that’s done. Basically back at the multimedia lab we were making a thing called The Visual Almanac which was our sample of 2000 images and sounds with about 20 interactive pieces showing what could be done. We brainstormed hundreds of ideas and shot some images and then each just picked one as a challenge and developed an idea around it. The best ideas were not new. The marble idea came from years of having asked kids to guess how many marbles there were
