Multiple Intelligence Chapter 13

    This chapter discussed the importance of the multiple intelligences in technology, with potential careers, various cultures, etc. It is said that multiple intelligence are what influence people to be who and what they are and that it is a multi cultural idea. It discusses how many of the intelligences relate to the various multiple intelligences. What really caught my attention in this chapter was the fact that in the career counseling section the authors discussed how certain things that students are good at help influence them to decide what they want to do in life. I guess that was something I had to really think about and question. Should adults and teachers be conveying to students that because they are good at something that should be something they pursue? Well maybe yes, but maybe no. I think it's up to the student and they should be aware of their multiple intelligence and understand their learning style but not make that their main focus.
