Publisher Description
Why are we pushing our kids to be good at a particular subject? Why are grades the measure of intelligence? Are we really raising successful children in this manner?
Howard Gardner first started the theory on multiple intelligence. Gardner was also dissatisfied with the rigid way society conceives intelligence, as seen in IQ tests. He wanted to expand our understanding of what intelligence is and how each child possesses a particular gift. This udioabook will help you understand his theory and how it can be developed in your own child.
These intelligences can also be referred to as "gifts". The word "intelligence" may sound too cognitive or too attached to the traditional notion of intelligence. Using the label "gifts", I want to emphasize how great and wonderful these capacities are. A gift connotes something hidden that can be opened and discovered. Inside this gift is a wonder that brings joy and happiness to people who receive it. And I believe that each child is a gift waiting to be found by all. Everyone has special abilities that we can share with others.
In this audiobook, you will learn:
How to appreciate your child’s gift
What values each gift can contribute to the society
How the gift works in the brain
The limitations of each gift
How to develop these gifts
The career paths that are associated with each gift
Before you push your child on a career path they may not want, you better listen to this audiobook first. It will open your mind to understanding that your child is already gifted as he or she is. Learn what makes learning whole by understanding all these concepts and how to take advantage of this to help your child unlock his strength and potential.
