Intelligence Reframed by Howard Gardner (Summary Ch 7,8 & 9)
"Project SUMIT" (Schools Using Multiple Intelligence Theory)
This was a 3-year national investigation of schools using MI theory. The SUMIT theory had 6 main topics to cover the implementation of MI in schools; Readiness, Culture, Collaboration, Choice, Tool and Arts.
Readiness - promote the awareness of what MI is and how it can be used properly in the schools.
Culture - MI practices are most likely to emerge in settings that support diverse learners and encourage steady, hard work.
Collaboration - opportunities for formal and informal exchages.
Choice - the school should offer meaningful options for curriculum as well as for assessment of student growth and learning.
Tool - MI should be used as a means of fostering high-quality student work.
Arts - a program rich in the arts should assume a significant role in the school.
At this time I still feel that Gardner cannot prove the Multiple Intelligences in a person but his theories have been used to improve the way teachers teach. Use these intelligences help' promote different ways students learn.

My First Commercial
I had a hard time getting the video uploaded to Viddle. From home it was showing 1 1/2 hours and when I left it to upload it still didn't work. When I uploaded at work it took less than 10 minutes. I also had a problem with recording the narriation. Adobe Premier did not work so I had to record it with another program and import the clip.

Green Screen Project
I was able to create the footage for the background of the green screen by getting on my bike and putting the video camera on my shoulder, shooting behind me. Surprisingly the ride was very smooth and I think that the film is steady.

Multiple Intelligences Assessment
I found this link to a multiple Intelligences assessment. I found it very interesting and fun to see where I fit into the 9 different Intelligences. Here is the link so you can take the assessment. Please share your results. http://literacyworks.org/mi/assessment/findyourstrengths.html
