In this Webinar

In this webinar, author Thomas Armstrong will examine how multiple intelligences theory has declined in popularity because of the accountability movement that swept across the nation in the 2000s. But now, Armstrong argues, multiple intelligences teaching is more important than ever in countering the datafication and standardization that prevails in many schools. Armstrong will highlight the new chapters in the latest edition of Multiple Intelligences in the Classroom (4th edition) and explore how multiple intelligences theory can contribute to better personalization programs, deeper use of learning technologies, and more positive ways of helping neurodiverse populations.
