Teoria inteligențelor multiple – modalitate de abordare activă a învățării la geografie

Abstract

Howard Gardner, a professor at the University of Havard, has identified nine types of intelligence: verbal-linguistic intelligence, logical-mathematical intelligence, musical intelligence, visual-space intelligence, natural intelligence, body-kinesthetic intelligence, interpersonal intelligence, intrapersonal intelligence, and existential intelligence. The theory of multiple intelligences has served as a turning point for reconsidering the educational practice of the past century. For the teacher to become competent in designing learning situations, from the perspective of multiple intelligentsia, he will analyze, from the perspective of this theory, every task proposed to students. Applying the Multiple Intelligence technique, the teacher personalizes training, makes learning more authentic and relevant, promotes student self-evaluation, mobilizes and motivates students to participate in choices, decisions and controls, uses a wide range of methods, techniques and procedures, reduces directivity.
