Multiple Intelligence Chapter 14

    This chapter discusses the multiple intelligences in the classroom and the feelings the teachers have on them. I thought it was really interesting that the teachers did not find it particularly helpful or beneficial to use the intelligences in assessments or in making it a major part of the objectives of their classroom. It seems like it would make things more difficult and cause more stress and problems in the classroom. Teachers feel that assessing students on their intelligences would limit their grading and I would agree that I think it would be challenging to do because it would seem like criteria would have to be more specific to various learning styles and that would separate out the students and the way each of them was evaluated.
