Multiple Intelligences – Kelley Martin

I know that Gardner commented that multiple intelligences differ from learning styles. I believe he distinguished between the two concepts in that learning styles means that you apply it consistently throughout different learning experiences; whereas, multiple intelligences means that you may have one or two that you excel in but that you move fairly fluidly through many or possibly all of the intelligences when processing new information. In writing this, it helps me to distinguish between the two. I’ve been introduced through Sunday school training, to the idea of learning styles; however, this is the first time I have heard of the theory of multiple intelligences. It does make sense to me; since a part of the brain can be damaged due to trauma or stroke and other parts of the brain compensate. The person can still perform other skills. It is amazing how much we don’t know about the brain and how we learn. – Kelley
