  1. Gardner’s Theory of Multiple Intelligences vs. UDL Mind your Multiple Means

  2. Theory of Multiple Intelligences (MI) Please follow along as I flash out some facts about Gardner’s Theory of Multiple Intelligences (MI)

  3. Universal Design for Learning(UDL) • I am teaming up with Cerebe to zap out some facts about Universal Design for Learning (UDL).

  4. MI • MI Anticipates: • Diversity in learners • Diversity in learning styles • Gardner, H. (2008)

  5. UDL • UDL also anticipates: • Diversity in learners • Diversity in learning styles • Integration of multi-sensory teaching methods • David H. Rose & Meyer, Anne (2002-2009) ch. 1

  6. MI • MI is supported by: • Brain research • MI is enhanced by: • Understanding neural networks

  7. UDL • UDL is also supported by: • Brain research • UDL is enhanced by: • Understanding neural networks

  8. MI • Curriculum must be flexible • Constructivist classroom; students want to be creative • Students need multiple means to access the curriculum • Students need multiple means to show what they have learned • Scherer, Marge. (1999)

  9. UDL • Curriculum limits a learner more than a disability • Designed with diverse learners in mind • must be flexible • Assessments are imbedded in the curriculum • Students need multiple means to access the curriculum • Students need multiple means to show what they have learned • Rose & Meyer (2002-2009) ch. 1.

  10. The MI Mind • Gardner’s Intelligences • Multiple means of engaging the curriculum • ‘… I describe seven different ways in which one can approach rich subject matter.’ • Scherer (1999)

  11. The MI Mind • Gardner’s Intelligences • (The 7 original) • Linguistic intelligence • Logical-mathematical intelligence • Musical intelligence • Bodily-kinesthetic intelligence • Spatial intelligence • Interpersonal intelligence • Intrapersonal intelligence • Smith, Mark K. (2002, 2008)

  12. The UDL Mind • Supported by current brain research • Mapping neural networks • Each network processes information differently

  13. The UDL Mind • Three major networks • Recognition—identifies and assigns meaning to: • Information • Ideas • Concepts

  14. The UDL Mind • Three major networks • Strategic—Specialized for mental & motor patterns: • Planning • Executing actions & skills • Monitoring progress

  15. The UDL Mind • Three major networks • Affective—Specialized to: • Assign emotional significance to patterns • Enable us to engage in learning • Rose & Meyer (2002-2009) ch. 2.

  16. Technology • Mi anticipates increased use of multiple kinds of technology in the classroom. • UDL plans for the use of multimedia and web 2.0 interactive media in the classroom.

  17. Recap--Similarities • MI & UDL both: • Anticipate diversity in learners • Anticipate different learning styles • Are supported by current brain research • Agree that the curriculum should be flexible • Students need multiple means to access the curriculum • Students need multiple ways to show what they have learned

  18. Recap--Differences • MI : • Was not intended as an educational theory • Theory that people have at least 7 or more kinds of intelligence. • UDL: • Based on brain research; three main networks shape learning • Integration of many learning theories • Multimedia technology is a key allowing students to access the curriculum and to show what they have learned.

  19. MI & UDL Support Diversity in the Classroom
