Book Description
This is a qualitative action research study which aims to increase the understanding of how music instruction, based on Howard Gardner's theory of Multiple Intelligences, affects student self-knowledge, and thus potentially offers a methodology that identifies and satisfies at least some of the learning needs of school children. Reflective journal entries, semi-structured interviews, and a researcher's log triangulate the data. The participants are Grade 3 students from an urban community and the project is based on a six week instructional module framed around each participant's strongest intelligence. The results clearly outline that individual student learning needs are met by incorporating a set of centres in the music room, one for each of Gardner's eight intelligences. The results also describe students who are engaged in their work, show respect and camaraderie, and enjoy the learning process. Professional concerns are addressed such as the transfer of a multiple intelligence approach into other subject areas and regular elementary classrooms, time considerations for this type of transformation, and the paradigm shift in learning and teaching that is required for educators to succeed in this method of instruction.

Book Description
This capstone project is an educational experience centered on the exploration of Howard Gardner's Multiple Intelligence (MI) theory, the development of teachers in primary grade school environments, and cross-curricular approaches to instruction. The findings and actions executed in this project culminate in a K-8 Professional Development workshop for Harriet Tubman Charter School (HTCS), in Bronx, NY. The workshop includes printed materials and information on the nine intelligences of Gardner's theory, discussion about its implications in school curriculum, testimonies of its success in schools in the United States, and strategies for both academic and special area teachers to incorporate their understandings of the intelligences in classroom instruction. Testimonies of the successful application of the theory in public/private school environments are provided through video resources. The professional development calls for educator and administrative participation in hypothetical scenarios utilizing understandings of the intelligences for the benefit of student learning and efficiency of instructional cycles. There is an emphasis on the musical intelligence and students who demonstrated stronger inclinations towards musical participation in school. The project provides methods for MI research to be connected to best teaching practices. It fostered the fusion of Common Core standards, National/State standards, and the various intelligences of the theory. The project concludes with a questionnaire for all teaching staff, school faculty, and administration of the Harriet Tubman Charter School on the appropriateness, efficiency, and usefulness of the overall professional development experience. This follows a brief session for questions and comments.
The Theory of Multiple Intelligences in a Special Education Music Classroom

Book Description
Special education students involved in music classes currently face a lack of inclusivity. Various methods have been used to promote inclusivity in the music classroom. This paper focuses on how Howard Gardner’s multiple intelligence theory promotes inclusivity in the special education music classroom. The multiple intelligence theory streamlines a special education music curriculum by highlighting each child’s strongest intelligence. To assess a child’s intelligences, they must participate in music-related tests. The tests include mini lessons which cater to the multiple intelligences. For example, when children are taught using visuals, some will not be able to learn as effectively if they are strongest in linguistic learning or mathematics. Teachers must differentiate instruction so each student can learn to the best of their ability. The students will in turn benefit by learning more easily, leading to a more productive classroom.
Multiple Intelligences and Student Achievement

Book Description
Finally, a book about multiple intelligences (MI) theory that answers the questions that all educational innovations must ultimately address: "What are the results on student achievement?" "How were those results achieved?" Multiple Intelligences and Student Achievement describes six schools that have used MI theory for five or more years. Through case studies of two elementary, two middle-level, and two high schools, Linda and Bruce Campbell illustrate why markedly different schools--large and small, rich and poor, inner-city and suburban--looked to MI when they wanted to boost student learning. In schools with long-term MI programs, achievement gains are impressive; in fact, the disparity between white and minority students is reduced or eliminated. Students at all three levels outperform their district, county, and national peers in basic skills. Such gains are possible even though teachers do not teach to standardized and state assessment tests. Instead, they believe that all students have strengths, and, as a result, students come to believe in themselves as well. Moreover, teachers have discovered that instruction through multiple intelligences is so positive and engaging that students--all students--can't help but learn. This book provides educators who are new to MI theory with solid achievement data and curricular formats to support, inform, and inspire their work. Those who have already worked with MI theory will find encouragement to continue and suggestions for refining their efforts.
