Beyond School

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):

1. Kinesthetic (Body Smart)
2. Logical (Number Smart)
3. Intrapersonal (Myself Smart)
4. Visual - Spatial (Picture Smart)
5. Linguistic (Word Smart)
6. Interpersonal (People Smart)
7. Musical (Music Smart)
8. Naturalistic (Nature Smart)

I really hope some of you will play here!
