Multiple Intelligences in Training

If we cannot disconnect, we cannot lead. Creating the culture of burnout is opposite to creating a culture of sustainable creativity.
Arianna Huffington, co-founder of the Huffington Post

Howard Gardner, best known for his theory of multiple intelligences, was interviewed in Brain World magazine (Spring 2015) and asked how might liberal arts colleges encourage different intelligences? Gardner responded...

"Two ingredients are helpful:

1) teachers' awareness that students can learn important material in a variety of ways, and these should be drawn upon as appropriate to teach a range of students;

2) learners themselves should be aware of how they learn best and seek environments (and teachers and curricula) that best address their strengths and help them to negotiate their weaknesses."
