The tool or the teacher?

Galitis I. (2007). The right tool for the job? Use of the Multiple Intelligences and Bloom's Taxonomy grid. Australasian Journal of Gifted Education; v.16 n.1 p.12-19; June 2007. Retrieved from ISSN: 1323-9686. (cited 06 Mar 10).

This article asks if the implementation of Gardners multiple intelligences into classroom practice is addressing the needs of gifted and talented students. 16 teachers from a metropolitan Victorian primary school were found to have rigid beliefs on gifted and talented education. It is suggested that these held beliefs could have resulted in the non-impact of Gardners multiple intelligences model on improving outcomes for gifted and talented students.
