Multiple Intelligences

Posted by joseortiz73 · October 17, 2006 · 2 replies

Hello everybody!

Can somebody help me, please!

I am currently teaching English in an Elementary School in Spain. I recently came across this awesome book called A Multiple Intelligences Road to an ELT Classroom by Michael Berman. I heard he is the first one to apply Gardner´s theory to ESL. I wonder if there are more good books published using this approach, and if so, what´s the latest. I have to write a thesis for my Master´s and here in Spain nobody has a clue.
I would appreciate if you can help me with some information.
Thanks

Jose Ortiz

Hi Jose,

Try Multiple Intelligences in EFL - Exercises for secondary and adult studentsby Herbert Puchta & Mario Rinvolucri
Publisher: Helbling Books

For a taster you can find at the following links some articles which then became the book :

Herbert Puchter has also written a kids course using MI which you'll find, together with a link to another article at :
http://www.cambridge.org/elt/joinin/overview/multiple.htm

Hope that gets you started.

Thanks a lot, Susan
