Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Howard Gardner's brilliant conception of individual competence has changed the face of education in the twenty-three years since the publication of his classic work,Frames of Mind. Since then thousands of educators, parents, and researchers have explored the practical implications and applications of Multiple Intelligences theory--the powerfulnotion that there are separate human capacities, ranging from musical intelligence to the intelligence involved in self-understanding. The first decade of research on MI theory and practice was reported in the 1993 edition ofMultiple Intelligences. This new edition covers all developments since then and stands as the most thorough and up-to-date account of MI available anywhere. Completely revised throughout, it features new material on global applications and on MI in the workplace, an assessment of MI practice in the current conservative educational climate, new evidence about brain functioning, and much more.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Howard Gardner per tutta la vita ha studiato le intelligenze degli altri. Con la teoria delle intelligenze multiple ha portato la rivoluzione nella psicologia, dimostrando che non esiste un’unica intelligenza umana che possa essere misurata secondo criteri psicometrici standard. Ha sfatato il mito del QI e ha ispirato nuovi metodi educativi dedicati allo sviluppo delle intelligenze diverse nelle scuole, nelle università e nei musei di tutto il mondo. Questo libro è dedicato a un capitolo nuovo della ricerca del grande psicologo: per la prima volta lui stesso diventa il proprio caso di studio ed esplora la propria mente. Questo studio rivolto a se stesso si intreccia con il racconto di una vita geniale, nella quale compaiono mentori come Erik Erikson e Jerome Bruner e allievi come Mihály Csíkszentmihályi e William Damon. C’è anche Groucho Marx, che un giorno declina l’invito di Gardner a parlare con gli studenti di Harvard perché troppo impegnato a “guadagnarsi da vivere”. Dalla combinazione straordinaria di racconto e analisi, autobiografia e ricerca, emerge la definizione della mente sintetica, che procede mettendo insieme elementi diversi, innesca l’attività di intelligenze diverse e, a differenza della mente creativa, non si muove dal nulla e liberamente, ma ha bisogno di essere contemporaneamente vincolata e rafforzata dai dati. Nella storia ci sono stati sintetizzatori esemplari, dallo storico Richard Hofstadter al critico letterario Edmund Wilson, fino a Charles Darwin. E, secondo Gardner, la mente sintetica è oggi molto preziosa per il nostro tempo. Questo è un viaggio per scoprire una capacità umana unica e sempre più necessaria nel mondo contemporaneo.

Book excerpt: “There’s a book I recommend for everybody: It’s Howard Gardner’s Frames of Mind. It has helped me immensely.” – Robert Greene, author of The 48 Laws of Power What do we mean when we call someone smart? That they are good at math and got a high score on the SAT? That they learn languages easily? Those traits might be what comes to mind first: they are what underly psychology’s classic definition of intelligence, and what we are told in school that a smart person can do. But they are not the whole story. As Howard Gardner argues in the groundbreaking classic Frames of Mind, to limit our understanding of intelligence to “book smarts” misses much of what makes human beings amazing. Someone who plays an instrument well is exhibiting intelligence. So, too, someone who knows how to do physical comedy—is their mastery of their movements and the space around them not brilliant? And to have a profound knowledge of their own self, their relationships with others, and relationships between others, too, is to show great intelligence as well. Gardner calls this the theory of multiple intelligences. But this isn’t just a book for intellectuals who want to argue about what intelligence is, or educators debating how to teach. It is for each of us. In an era of teaching to the test, and increasingly powerful artificial intelligence, Gardner’s work is a celebration of all the ways there are to be huma

Book Strangers at Our Door

Download or read book Strangers at Our Door written by Zygmunt Bauman and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2016-06-20 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Refugees from the violence of wars and the brutality of famished lives have knocked on other people's doors since the beginning of time. For the people behind the doors, these uninvited guests were always strangers, and strangers tend to generate fear and anxiety precisely because they are unknown. Today we find ourselves confronted with an extreme form of this historical dynamic, as our TV screens and newspapers are filled with accounts of a 'migration crisis', ostensibly overwhelming Europe and portending the collapse of our way of life. This anxious debate has given rise to a veritable 'moral panic' - a feeling of fear spreading among a large number of people that some evil threatens the well-being of society. In this short book Zygmunt Bauman analyses the origins, contours and impact of this moral panic - he dissects, in short, the present-day migration panic. He shows how politicians have exploited fears and anxieties that have become widespread, especially among those who have already lost so much - the disinherited and the poor. But he argues that the policy of mutual separation, of building walls rather than bridges, is misguided. It may bring some short-term reassurance but it is doomed to fail in the long run. We are faced with a crisis of humanity, and the only exit from this crisis is to recognize our growing interdependence as a species and to find new ways to live together in solidarity and cooperation, amidst strangers who may hold opinions and preferences different from our own.

Book German Social Democracy  1905 1917

Download or read book German Social Democracy 1905 1917 written by Carl E. Schorske and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1955 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No political parties of present-day Germany are separated by a wider gulf than the two parties of labor, one democratic and reformist, the other totalitarian and socialist-revolutionary. Social Democrats and Communists today face each other as bitter political enemies across the front lines of the Cold War; yet they share a common origin in the Social Democratic Party of Imperial Germany. How did they come to go separate ways? By what process did the old party break apart? How did the prewar party prepare the ground for the dissolution of the labor movement in World War I, and for the subsequent extension of Leninism into Germany? To answer these questions is the purpose of Carl Schorske's study.
