The document discusses the nine multiple intelligences identified by Howard Gardner: verbal-linguistic, logical-mathematical, visual-spatial, bodily-kinesthetic, musical, interpersonal, intrapersonal, naturalist, and existential. For each intelligence, it provides a brief definition, examples of basic activities and instructional strategies to develop that intelligence, as well as potential career paths that make use of each type of intelligence.

1. Verbal-Linguistic Mathematical-Logical Musical Rhythmic Visual-Spatial Bodily-Kinesthetic Interpersonal Intrapersonal Naturalist MI IDENTIFIED

2. Verbal-Linguistic Linguistic-verbal intelligence is that ability to use words effectively either orally or in writing, that is, the ability to exhibit language development in its fullest form, The capacity to use language, your native language, and perhaps other languages, to express what's on your mind and to understand other people Poets really specialize in linguistic intelligence, but any kind of writer, orator, speaker, lawyer, or a person for whom language is an important stock in trade, highlights linguistic intelligence Well-developed verbal skills and sensitivity to the sounds, meanings and rhythms of words Occurs through written and spoken words, such as in essays, speeches, books, informal conversation, debates, and jokes

3. Verbal-Linguistic A. Basic MI Activities - Teaching Activities Compose essays Poetry, etc. for publishing on web page Critique written resources through an annotated bibliography (hypertext) B.

5. Mathematical-Logical Logical mathematical intelligence is all about using numbers effectively, improving inductive and deductive reasoning skills, and being able to appreciate, recognize, and use abstract patterns in problem solving situations.

6. Mathematical-Logical Ability to think conceptually and abstractly, and capacity to discern logical or numerical patterns People with highly developed logical/mathematical intelligences understand the underlying principles of some kind of a causal system, the way a scientist or a logician does Can manipulate numbers, quantities, and operations, the way a mathematician does Uses numbers, logic, scientific reasoning, and calculating to help solve problems and meet challenges

7. Mathematical-Logical A. Basic MI Activities - Teaching Activities Analyze statistical historical data Create graphic representations of historical data Create hyper-linked timeline B. Instructional Strategies - Teaching Activities Problem solving Investigation Experimentation Questioning

8. Careers Computer technicians and programmers, underwriters, accountants, statisticians, poll takers, stock brokers, auditors, actuaries, purchasing agents, bankers, accountants, professional debaters, math teachers, attorneys, scientific researchers, arbitrators, underwriters, medical professionals, data analysts, logicians

9. Musical Rhythmic Musical intelligence is that special ability to recognize tonal patterns, rhythm and beat. In other words, it is the ability to understand and express well numerous musical forms. Such learners are most sensitive to environmental sounds, the human voice and musical instruments.

10. Musical Rhythmic Ability to produce and appreciate rhythm, pitch and timber The capacity to think in music, to be able to hear patterns, recognize them, and perhaps manipulate them People don't just remember music easily - they can't get it out of their minds, it's so omnipresent Learns through sounds, rhythms, tones, beats, music produced by other people or present in the environment

11. Musical Rhythmic A. Basic MI Activities - Teaching Activities Analysis of song lyrics Composition of song lyrics Design and publish PowerPoint presentations which incorporate music and visual elements B. Instructional Strategies - Teaching Activities Simulations Song analysis Creative song writing Performances

12. Careers Music therapist, advertising professionals, motion picture soundtrack creators, music teachers, piano tuners, music studio directors and recorders, song writers, music performers, conductors, sound engineers, music copyists

13. Visual-Spatial Visual spatial intelligence makes it possible for us to perceive visual and spatial data, to transform such data, as well as being able to recreate visual images from memory.

14. Visual-Spatial The ability to represent the spatial world internally in your mind – the way a sailor or airplane pilot navigates the large spatial world, or the way a chess player or sculptor represents a more circumscribed spatial world Can be used in the arts or in the sciences. If you are spatially intelligent and oriented toward the arts, you are more likely to become a painter or sculptor or architect than, say a musician or a writer. Similarly, certain sciences like anatomy or topology emphasize spatial intelligence Uses the sense of sight and being able to imagine and visualize an object, including making mental images inside our head

15. Visual-Spatial A. Basic MI Activities - Teaching Activities Construct thematic web pages that include various visual images (e.g., posters, political cartoons, broadsides, photos, illustrations) Construct hyperlinked timelines and maps B. Instructional Strategies - Teaching Activities Imagery Map analysis Observation activities Construction of dioramas or posters

16. Careers Interior decorators, graphic design artists, cartographers, photographers, architects, airline pilots, surgeons, painters, sculptors, chefs (with their food presentations), quilters, needle point embroiders, landscapers, theater set designers, professional drivers, cinematographers, book illustrators, tour guides, jewelry and clothing designers

17. Bodily-Kinesthetic Bodily kinesthetic intelligence is related to physical movement and the knowledge of the body and how it functions; it includes the ability to use many parts of the body to express emotion, to play a game, and to interpret and invoke effective "body" language.

18. Bodily-Kinesthetic The capacity to use your whole body or parts of your body: (your hands, your fingers, your arms), to solve a problem, make something, or put on some kind of production The most evident examples are people in athletics or the performing arts, particularly when dancing or acting Uses physical movement and performance (a.k.a. learning by doing) to understand

19. Bodily-Kinesthetic A. Basic MI Activities - Teaching Activities Internet based simulations Cooperative web searches or web quests Role playing activities that incorporate Web resources Classroom presentations B. Instructional Strategies - Teaching Activities Simulations Modeling Role playing Analyzing manipulative

20. Careers Gymnasts, physical therapists, models, mechanics, choreographers, actors, recreation directors, crafts persons, athletes, invertors, builders , dancers, circus artists, bodybuilders, doctors, nurses, exercise instructors, sport coaches, law enforcement personnel

21. Interpersonal Interpersonal intelligence is the capacity to value, understand, and respond appropriately to the motivations, moods, and feelings of others. Or more simply put, these people learn best through person-to-person interaction .

22. Interpersonal Understanding other people An ability we all need, but is at a premium if you are a teacher, clinician, salesperson, or a politician. Anybody who deals with other people has to be skilled in the interpersonal sphere Uses person-to-person relating, communication, teamwork, and collaboration with others

25. Intrapersonal Intrapersonal intelligence deals with the development and understanding of the self and using this knowledge to live well; it includes personal goals, feelings, anxieties and strengths and subsequently drawing from that awareness to guide personal behavior.

26. Intrapersonal Having an understanding of yourself, of knowing who you are, what you can do, what you want to do, how you react to things, which things to avoid, and which things to gravitate toward We are drawn to people who have a good understanding of themselves because those people tend not to screw up. They tend to know what they can do, what they can’t do, and they tend to know where to go if they need help The knowing which comes from introspection, self-reflection, and raising questions about life’s meaning and purpose

27. Intrapersonal A. Basic MI Activities - Teaching Activities All of the above activities that might be completed through reflective individual projects B. Instructional Strategies - Teaching Activities Decision making Journal writing Self-discovery Independent learning projects

28. Careers Therapists, psychologists, human potential researchers, philosophers, religious leaders (pastors and priests), social workers, mediation guides, counselors, self-help advisors, cognitive pattern researchers, mental health professionals

29. Naturalist Naturalist intelligence is the ability to recognize and classify elements of the natural world. That is, this intelligence enables us to classify, understand, and explain the elements of nature.

30. Naturalist Weather conditions of the natural world Recognize patterns and distinctions in the natural world
