                         Abstract: 
            This project addresses the current hot topic in the field of education, of Multiple 
            Intelligences.  Howard Garner, psychologist and Harvard professor, believes there 
            are multiple ways children learn.  Through that belief he created the Multiple 
            Intelligences Theory (MI) which states there are eight ways people learn or 
            complete tasks.  This project looked at the Theory of Multiple Intelligences and 
            analyzed how it is applied in the classroom.  Through research, direct observation, 
            and interviews with teachers, it was found how this theory is practically applied in 
            classrooms today.   
             
            The following three questions were answered in this project.  How are current 
            teachers in the field applying the multiple intelligences theory in the classroom 
            setting?  (The traditional approach of using the Verbal/Linguistic and 
            Logical/Mathematical learning styles has seemed to fade away.)  Are the other 
            Multiple Intelligences used as often in the classroom?  And finally, do teachers 
            know their students’ Multiple Intelligences, and are they deliberately using those 
            in their lessons, or is it unintentional?
