Description:
Ever since Howard Gardner first conceived the idea of multiple intelligences more than 20 years ago, educators have looked for ways to apply his theory to curricular design. In this new edition, Walter Mckenzie shows us that instructional technology can be the ideal tool for doing just that. Providing a host of lesson ideas and planning materials that make use of current hardware, software and online resources, Mckenzie demonstrates how multiple intelligences theory can be teamed with technology to produce curriculum that inspires every student to learn.
