Multiple Intelligences chapter 13 targeted three different areas which multiple intelligences can be used such as computer technology, cultural diversity, and career counseling. The computers incorporate the different intelligences in many different ways such as linguistic with word processor. The cultural diversity is very challenging because in order for the intelligence to be considered as a true intelligence it has to be valued by the culture. It is very important that students are exposed to working adults who use the different intelligences, these exposures help students to figure out what they intend to do as they grow up. Students need to be given the opportunity to explore different careers using the different intelligences.
Many students in out class felt that this chapter was far behind time and that some of the uses towards the different cultures were not very good. However, some people felt that this chapter offered great insight and that it is very important to connect student’s skills with real world activity or jobs. Career counseling is amazing because it shows the students that their intelligence can bring them to careers and this counseling can show them which careers and which intelligence lines up with different careers.

Your Cultural Diversity site is really good. It gives an explanation of why students need teachers to be flexible with the way we teach.
I liked this chapter and I think that it is important to make sure that students from other cultures are getting the same treatment as far as MI's go. I liked the second link!!!
I enjoyed this chapter and I found the links to be helpful in explaining your chapter. Well done!
