MI Chapter 12: MI and Cognitive Skills

Chapter 12 of Mi is about teaching students to use the different intelligences to think deeply about a topic and remember it. Everyone thinks in different ways so it makes sense that the multiple intelligences should be used to describe the different ways that people think about a topic or subject. This will be great when trying to teach my students ways to study for a test as well as when thinking about ways to help students think deeply about material. If I can tap into how they think I can teach to that and encourage that process. Being able to think is often more important than the material.
