Abstract: The multiple intelligences module is designed for a two- to three-hour class or training. It can be used in conjunction with trainings of software applications that are used in classroom settings. Ideally, the module would be the core of a training where participants develop ideas, go back to their classrooms to implement them, and then come back together to regroup, reflect, and refine projects designed at the first training session. Part One, Guided Process, is a brief introduction to multiple intelligences. It answers the questions "Why is the theory of multiple intelligences important and how does it fit into the context of individualized instruction?" "What is the theory of multiple intelligences?" and "How can the theory of multiple intelligences be integrated into teaching and learning?" Part Two, Group Participation, guides participants in envisioning the theory of multiple intelligences in their classrooms. It asks participants to engage in a variety of activities that deepen their understanding of multiple intelligences, and how it might be incorporated into their instructional practice. Ideally, participants will develop activities they can take back to their students and their classrooms.
