• EDU 143: Working With Multiple Intelligence

  1.00 Credits

  Community College of Allegheny County

  
  This course will address the concept of Multiple Intelligence. Traditional learning stresses the development of verbal and problem-solving skills. Research has routinely shown that many students would benefit from a broader approach to education. The course will focus on ways to develop the proposed eight domains of intelligence: verbal/linguistic, visual/spatial, bodily/kinesthetic, logical/mathematical, intrapersonal, interpersonal, musical/rhythmic and naturalistic.
