Desarrollo de un programa de inteligencias múltiples propuestas por Howard Gardner en un grupo de 8 niños de transición del jardín infantil colorines

Cada vez son más los estudios a nivel educativo, que serealizan sobre las enseñanzas “uniformes” que prevalecen en las escuelascontemporáneas, donde existen currículos básicos que constituyen unconjunto de hechos que todos deben conocer pero muy pocas alternativaselectivas.

Inteligencias múltiples : Howard Gardner en el Colegio Montserrat.

En la actualidad la educación de la infancia trata de incorporar propuestas relacionadas con el desarrollo multidimensional. Una de estas propuestas es la relativa a las inteligencias múltiples, cuyo máximo introductor es Howard Gardner. Se expone la conferencia impartida por Gardner en un congreso para padres de familia y profesores, en el que se explica las bases de las inteligencias múltiples. La teoría se apoya en que cada persona tiene unas ocho inteligencias, pero cada individuo desarrolla un perfil de inteligencia diferente.

Gardner : la enseñanza a partir de las inteligencias.

La Teoría de las Inteligencias Múltiples (IM) establece que, además de las inteligencias lingüística y matemática, los seres humanos poseemos otras seis. Según Gardner, la inteligencia no es algo innato y fijo, sino que está localizada en diferentes áreas del cerebro, interconectadas entre sí y que pueden también trabajar de forma individual. Se expone que la inteligencia es dinámica y plural. Gardner define el término inteligencia a partir de tres criterios: capacidad para resolver problemas reales; capacidad de crear resultados efectivos y capacidad de encontrar o crear problemas. Este autor identifica ocho inteligencias: la inteligencia lingüística-verbal; la inteligencia kinestésica; la inteligencia lógica-matemática; la inteligencia visual-espacial; la inteligencia musical; la inteligencia interpersonal; la inteligencia intrapersonal y la inteligencia naturalista.

Gardner; re BWW: Victorian Supreme Court makes landmark Australian ruling on tube feeding

• The Victorian Supreme Court has decided that artificial nutrition and hydration provided through a percutaneous gastrostomy tube to a woman in a persistent vegetative state may be withdrawn.
• The judge ruled, in line with a substantial body of international medical, ethical and legal opinion, that any form of artificial nutrition and hydration is a medical procedure, not part of palliative care, and that it is a procedure to sustain life, not to manage the dying process.
• Thus, the law does not impose a rigid obligation to administer artificial nutrition or hydration to people who are dying, without due regard to their clinical condition. The definition of key terms such as “medical treatment”, “palliative care”, and “reasonable provision of food and water” in this case will serve as guidance for end-of-life decisions in other states and territories.
• The case also reiterates the right of patients, and, when incompetent, their validly appointed agents or guardians, to refuse medical treatment.
• Where an incompetent patient has not executed a binding advance directive and no agent or guardian has been appointed, physicians, in consultation with the family, may decide to withdraw medical treatment, including artificial nutrition or hydration, on the basis that continuation of treatment is inappropriate and not in the patient’s best interests. However, Victoria and other jurisdictions would benefit from clarification of this area of the law

Learning 'through' or learning 'about'? The ridiculous and extravagant medium of opera : Gardner's multiple intelligences in pre-service teacher education

In recent years, pre-service teacher education has attempted to incorporate into programs an understanding of Gardner’s theory of multiple intelligences as it applies to schools. In this paper the tension between ‘learning about’ multiple intelligences and ‘learning through’ multiple intelligences supports Gardner’s (1993) distinction between ‘understanding’ and ‘coverage’. This paper examines the use of the performing arts in the professional studies component of our teacher education program. During 2002 at The University of Melbourne, a group of education students were offered the opportunity to develop an opera in order to learn about assessment and curriculum. Thirty-seven of the students volunteered to be involved and over a period of six months met this challenge. Our action research study asked two critical questions. To what extent is the understanding of multiple intelligences by pre-service teachers improved by ‘learning through’? Can pre-service teachers address fundamental issues in curriculum and assessment through the development of a performance? This experience would be of value to other teacher educators.

Spectacle and publics: Ava Gardner in Australia 1959

Ava Gardner’s famous line about Melbourne being the right place to film a story about the end of the world was part of the spectacle created by the print media to capitalise on her presence here to film, On the Beach in 1959. Gardner’s refusal to appear in public created different responses from the Australian print media the most interesting of which was Melbourne’s The Truth. With the help of a fledgling paparazzi, Truth used Gardner’s non-appearance to create a fictitious image of her which was mediated to create extremes of public opinion in order to generate sales. This paper examines The Truth ’s response to Gardner in the context of the creation and manipulation of public spectacle.
