Research On Language Teaching In Perspective Of The Theory Of Multiple Intelligences

The multiple intelligences (MI) theory has been widely applied and given great impetus in educational fields since it was presented in the late 1980s. Taking the basic theory of MI as a starting point, this paper discusses the possibility and necessity of applying it to language teaching and suggests ways of how to apply it to the teaching of Chinese.The thesis consists of three parts.Part one: introduction ,simply introducing multiple intelligence, main make one brief introduction towards adding the MI theories of Howard Gardner from three aspects of intellectual definition, multiple intelligence structure and essence, the diverse intelligence theories important points, build the theories to prop up for the full text. Part two:combine the analysis to the diverse intelligence course and the language course, the argument makes use of the possibility and specials that the diverse intelligence theories carries on the language teaching, and introduced at home and abroad some research result, the integration that tries to prove the diverse intelligence theories and the language teachings is possible and meaningful. Gardner defines intelligence as an ability to solve problems or create products that are valued in at least one or more culture settings. His view of intelligence suggests that all people possess at least eight different intelligences which operate in varying degrees.These intelligences as identified by Gardner include verbal-linguistic intelligence, logical-mathematical intelligence, visual-spatial intelligence, musical-rhythmic intelligence, bodily-kinesthetic intelligence, interpersonal ntelligence, intrapersonal intelligence and naturalist intelligence. All these intelligences are equally important. Each intelligence is a relatively independent function system which includes sub-intelligence. There is evidence that each intelligence has an explicit developmental pattern which needs nurturing and support to reach its full potential. Each intelligence has an identifable se of stages of growth with a mastery level which exists as and end state in human development. The intelligences all have times of peaking and decline.Part three: from three aspect analysises how transfer the multiple intelligence of student, carry on the language teaching.After combing to transfer the circumstance of...
