Digital Arts Menu for Multiple Intelligences Wiki: Please Contribute Your Favorites!

Friday, 28 September 2007 Clay Burell Print This Post

UPDATE: The wiki password is: welcome

As promised in an earlier post tonight, I set up the staff development workshop wiki with pages dedicated to web 2.0 and other digital tools best suited to each of Gardner’s eight multiple intelligences.

I hope you’ll agree to two things:

1. This type of organization for web 2.0 / digital literacies and creativities will be useful for teachers and students alike; and
2. There’s no way I can do it better than we can. (C’mon – it’s a wiki. That means it’s open to collaboration!)

It’s straightforward enough: If you know any iLife (okay, or PC) or web-based tool that would be most attractive and fun for the eight multiple intelligences, click on the link for that intelligence and add it! I’ve already started with the Musical Intelligence page, but would love to see your additions to it and all the others.

Need a refresher on those intelligences? They are (with links to their wiki page):

I really hope some of you will play here!

Alas, your wiki wouldn’t let me in because I didn’t have the password.

I love words (quotes!) but am basically a visual – and hands on – learner. Dan Meyer blogged about making posters

and for quick slideshows, I go to Animoto.

An auditory,musical learner might appreciate directions given via a Voki.

Blogs are basically intrapersonal, while wikis and Google Docs are interpersonal.

Although the technology gifted use many of the other Intelligences, should that be in a category of its own: Digitally versatile, perhaps?

Clay,

Now that I have caught up with your prolific posting, I can echo Diane’s statement about the password. Would love to contribute some visual search engines to that page. I played around with these with some Special Educations students a few weeks ago and they loved how they could see the search, rather than just read it.

My faves: TouchGraph, Search Crystal, Clusty, Kartoo, and Quintara.

Thanks Diane, Patrick. Sorry about the password – my first time with PBwiki collaboratively. The pw is: welcome
