Chapter 4

Chapter four started examining how a teacher would go about educating their students about MI theory, specifically how it relates to each students life. Just as a teacher can use knowledge of what their own intelligences are like, a student can use it to get more out of each class. This can go beyond a single class to subjects where a teacher may not apply as much effort trying to reach every student. If each student can be trained to stand ready and know which types of learning they may be less successful with they can try suggesting to a teacher what may work better for them. With less receptive teachers it may just mean they'll be aware that they don't get material as well in a certain method and work with other students studying in ways they solidifies it better in their mind.
We all seemed to agree on the fact that this is one of the best things a teacher can do. It allows for not only bettering the learning environment but helping the students better themselves. As a group of students, all aiming to teach, its an interesting stage in our lives where we can see both sides of the spectrum depending on the day of the week. We can see how it can help the students, as we are ones and can benefit from it, however we also are blessed with being able to try applying this knowledge as we become more and more involved in the classrooms.
