This document discusses multiple theories related to learning styles and intelligence. It describes Howard Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences, which identifies eight types of intelligence: linguistic, logical-mathematical, spatial, bodily-kinaesthetic, musical, interpersonal, intrapersonal, and naturalist. It also outlines three main learning styles: visual, auditory, and kinesthetic. Visual learners learn best through seeing things, auditory learners through listening, and kinesthetic learners through physical movement and doing. The document provides details on each type of intelligence and learning style.
2. ATTENTION DEFICIT DISORDER
(ADD)
does not pay attention to the subject or
does not become motivated because of
the teaching methods and becomes a case
of dropout or stagnates
3. THREE KINDS OF LEARNING
STYLES
Visual Learners
Auditory Learners
Kinaesthetic Learners
4. Visual Learners
65% of the population
learn through what they are able to see
with their own eyes
love aids such as photos, diagrams, maps
and graphs
frequently are good writers
5. Auditory Learners
30% of the population
good listeners
absorb information in a more efficient
manner through
sounds, music, discussions, teachings
appreciate books on tape and may find
that reading aloud will help them to retain
information
6. Kinaesthetic Learners
5% of the population
learn best through moving, doing, acting
out and touching
Projects that are hands-on in nature are
best for Kinaesthetic Learners
9. Linguistic intelligence ("word
smart")
ability to learn languages, and the
capacity to use language to accomplish
certain goals
Writers, poets, lawyers and speakers are
among those that Howard Gardner sees as
having high linguistic intelligence
11. Spatial intelligence ("picture
smart")
") the ability to "think in pictures," to
perceive the visual world accurately, and
recreate (or alter) it in the mind or on
paper
These people also have the capacity to
use charts, diagrams, tables, graphs etc
efficiently
13. Musical intelligence ("music
smart")
involves skill in the
performance, composition, and
appreciation of musical patterns
capacity to recognize and compose
musical pitches, tones, and rhythms
runs in an almost structural parallel to
linguistic intelligence
14. Interpersonal intelligence
("people smart")
ability to perceive and understand other
individuals - their moods, desires, and
motivations
Political and religious leaders, skilled
parents and teachers, and therapists use
this intelligence.
15. Intrapersonal intelligence ("self
smart")
is an understanding of one's own
emotions, feelings, fears and motivations
it involves having an effective working
model of ourselves, and to be able to use
such information to regulate our lives
Some novelists and or counsellors use
their own experience to guide others
