 * Addressing Multiple Intelligences Through Multimedia **

Howard Gardner’s theory of Multiple Intelligences provides insight into the way students absorb information.

Kinesthetic - Interpersonal - Intrapersonal - Linguistic - Mathematical - Musical - Naturalist - Spatial

Instead of having one intelligence it is claimed that we have several different intelligences

 * Module 4: Multiple Intelligences and Alternative Assessment **

In this module, you will: · Research the multiple intelligences and alternative assessment · Examine how multimedia projects are evaluated · Create a rubric · Write a reflection
 * Objectives **

All of our students have different strengths and needs when it comes to learning. Multimedia projects are a great way to meet your students’ needs. Having firm expectations can make creating and grading those projects much easier for both you and your students. In module 4 you will research the multiple intelligences and alternative assessments and create an assessment that could be used to grade your PPT from the first weekend. You may also use some of the same sites for module 3.

Read through the websites posted for multiple intelligences and alternative assessment. (1) Look at my web sites in the External Links. (2) Examine how multimedia projects are evaluated. (3) Create a simple rubric including the 5 topics (images, video, sound, hyperlinks, & action buttons) I required and evaluate your PowerPoint from day 2 (it should be in your class folder). (4) Write a brief summary of how it worked and upload that word document to me.
