Course Description
It is quite challenging for educators, especially teachers, to treat learners using the “one size fits all” teaching approach. Studies have proved that learners (and even each individual learner) incorporate a number of intelligences, called “The Multiple Intelligences”. This course aims to introduce participants to the theory of multiple intelligences and guide them through possible means of discovering them in their students. Participants will be able to identify the different types of multiple intelligences, learn how to apply them in the best scenario, and how to incorporate this knowledge in the class for better learning outcomes by unleashing learners’ maximum learning potential.
