Multiple Intelligence's
After reading through the multiple intelligence's assignment, it has been determined that Howard Gardner has identified seven distinct intelligence's. According to this theory, we are all able to know the world through language, logical mathematical analysis, spatial representation, musical thinking, the use of the body to solve problems or make things, an understanding of other individuals, and an understanding of ourselves. my mission throughout this blog is to determine how I can utilize these techniques in my classroom. They are as follows;
Visual-Spatial- Think in terms of physical space, as do architects and sailors. Very aware of their environment. They like to draw, do jigsaw puzzles, read maps, and daydream. They can be taught through drawings, verbal and physical imaginary. Tools include models, graphics, charts, photographs, drawings, 3-D modeling, video, video conferencing, television, multimedia, texts, with pictures/charts/graphs.
Bodily - Kinesthetic- Use the body effectively,like a dancer or a surgeon. Keen sense of body awareness. They like movement, making things, and touching. They communicate well through body language and be taught through physical activity, hands-on learning, acting out, role-playing. Tools include equipment in real objects.
Musical- Show sensitivity to rhythm and sound. They love music, but they are also sensitive to sounds in their environments. They may study better with music in the background, tapping out time. Tools include musical instruments, music, radio, stereo, CD ROM, multimedia.
Interpersonal- Understanding, and interacting with others. The students learn through interaction. They have many friends, empathy for others, They can be taught through group activities, seminars, and dialogues. Tools include the telephone,audio conferencing, time and attention from the instructor, videoconferencing, writing, computer conferencing, e-mail.
Intrapersonal- Understanding one's own interests, goals. These learners tend to shy away from others. They are in tune with their inner feelings; they have wisdom, intuition and motivation, as well as a strong will, confidence and opinions. They can be taught through independent study, and introspection. Tools include books, creative materials, diaries, privacy and time. They are the most independent of the learners.
Linguistic- Using words effectively. These learners have highly developed auditory skills and often think in words. They like reading, playing word games, making up poetry or stories. They can be taught by encouraging them to say and see words, read books together. Tools include computers, games, multimedia, books, tape recorders, and lecture.
Logical – Mathematical- Reasoning, calculating. Think conceptually, abstractly and are able to see and explore patterns and relationships. They like to experiment, solve puzzles, ask cosmic questions. They can be taught through logic games, investigations, mysteries. They need to learn and form concepts before they can deal with details.
How can I utilize the techniques above to best teach students a block of instruction on Drill/Ceremony and or marching? Visual – spatial learners, for these individuals, I would have a video of cadets marching that would be shown in a classroom setting. Body - Kinesthetic, upon the completion of the lesson, these learners would better grasp the assignment by actually marching. Musical, having a drum, a beat, or some form of music in the background will assist these learners. Interpersonal, interaction with others, leading, and following are the keys to marching effectively. These individuals in the interpersonal category should have no problem grasping the concept of marching. Intrapersonal, these individuals will be my most challenging throughout this lesson.they will have to remain in the follower role until they're comfortable enough with leading. Linguistic, listening to and or giving commands are how these individuals would learn the best. Logical – Mathematical, give these individuals a specific drill sequence, which will cause them to think on the fly.

First Assignment
Define the Internet? The internet Also known as: theNet the single worldwide computer network that interconnectsother computer networks, on which end-user services, such asWorld Wide Web sites or data archives, are located, enabling data and other information to be exchanged. A global communication network that allows almost all computers worldwide to connect and exchange information. Someof the early impetus for such a network came from the U.S.government network ARPAnet, starting in the 1960s.
Describe how the internet is used? I think it would be easier to ask what it's not used for! We are at point where you no longer have to leave your house for anything. Socializing, banking/bill paying, shopping, education and entertainment are just a few examples of what the internet is used for. As stated above, I couldn't imagine life today without it.
Discuss the history of the internet and the world wide web?
The U.S Department of Defense developed the first version of the internet during the 1970s to allow communication among researchers working on DOD projects in about 30 different locations. In the 1980s, just as desktop computers were becoming common, the National Science Foundation funded a high-speed connection among university centers based on the ARPAnet structure. An unexpected benefit occurred during this time ,where as, a person accessing a university network from home or school could also get access to any site connected to that network. This connection began to be called the gateway to all networks, and what we now call the internet was born. Though most people think of the internet as synonymous with the World Wide Web (WWW), the later really is a subset of the internet system. The WWW is an internet service that links sites around the world through hypertext, texts that contain links to other texts.
Describe how individuals and businesses connect to the internet? We all have access to the internet, no matter where we are or the time of day. For an individual connecting at home, it's a matter of contacting an internet service provider and setting up a plan for a monthly fee. There are, however, some schools, libraries and restaurants where individuals can connect for free. Starting a business in today's date and time requires you to be on the internet or you will soon fail, as I stated earlier, you really don't have to leave your home to purchase anything these days.
My First Post
I am very intimidated by this course, however, I plan to give it my best. Am I doing okay?
