Students begin to understand how they are intelligent. They have different intelligence based on Gardner’s Theory. There are 12 Multiple Intelligences as stated in that theory.
Students vary on how they learn through his teacher and through his/her environment. Each of these intelligences has its own strengths weaknesses based on their preferred field.
Teachers understand how students are intelligent as well as how intelligent they are. Knowing which students have the potential for strong interpersonal intelligence.
Students approach understanding from different angles. The problem, “What is sand?” has scientific, poetic, artistic, musical, and geographic points of entry.
Students that exhibit comprehension through rubrics and portfolios or demonstrations come to have an authentic understanding of achievement. The accomplishment of the lawyer is in winning her case through research and persuasive argument, more than in having passed the bar exam. Also, teachers’ accomplishment is in feeding their students through educating them morally, than passing their final demo in their on-job-training.
