Are we really just one type of learner? Can we be many? And can we change from one type of learner to another?
Gardner’s theory of Multiple Intelligences expanded the traditional notion of what is ‘intelligence’ to include this range of possibilities:
At the time of it’s publication (1983), the theory gave other types of learners a chance to ‘shine.’ For example, those who excelled in visual arts might have been considered ‘talented’ but not necessarily ‘intelligent’. Gardner’s theory made room for this distinction.
However, are these categories useful? Or do they simply box people into one type of learner or another?
For me, the individual and the context in which the learner receives and shares information and ideas –is what matters most. Each of us unique. But it takes time and effort and intelligence to get to know what works for each of us.
Are YOU intelligent? … Take the test.
