Description
 
 
This article by Mary Ann Christison discusses the theory of multiple intelligences (MI). "As Gardner (1993:15) states: It is of the utmost importance that we recognize and nurture all of the varied human intelligences, and all of the combinations of intelligences. We are all so different largely because we all have different combinations of intelligences. If we recognize this, I think we will have at least a better chance of dealing appropriately with the many problems we face in the world."

This is an in-depth article that discusses the theory of multiple intelligences (MI). You can find information about how to define MI, the eight intelligences (according to Gardner), implications of MI theory for foreign language education, and useful tips on applying multiple intelligences theory. This is an excellent resource for educators.
