Multiple Intelligences Chapter 8

Abstract:
Chapter 8 of Multiple Intelligences discusses the integration of the multiple intelligence theory into classroom management. It suggests that teachers try and step outside the box of simply asking students to be quiet, and opt instead to try a logical, musical, interpersonal, or bodily approach to commanding respect and attention.

Reflection:
Our group as a whole agreed with this chapter overall. It brought up some new ideas regarding classroom management, that we might not normally think of. The idea that if we as teachers are going to vary our teaching techniques based around student learning styles, why not extend that idea to other aspects of the classroom such as communication and discipline.
