Science Stuff: Theory of Multiple Intelligences with Ash
What's the Theory of Multiple Intelligences and is it useful for teaching? Or is it as useful as knowing which Disney Princess you are on a Buzzfeed quiz? In this episode, I bring Ash back to discuss Howard Gardener's Theory of Multiple Intelligences, and see why it might not be the best thing for educators...
To confirm, we're not denying Gardener's MI theory in this episode, more so it's relation to the classroom (virtual or otherwise!). I urge you to listen to the experts on this as well!
