Content Review
Directions:
Respond to each item. Each response should be concise and
between 2
–
3 paragraphs in length.
Use MS Word to write your responses, and submit your answers
to all three questions in one Word document.
Copy and paste each question within the document, so that your
instructor can see which question you are responding to.
Lilian G. Katz has been credited with a number of contributions
to the field of early childhood education. One of her
contributions, the Project Approach, has been known to foster
children's development and learning as early as toddlerhood
,and can also be used just as successfully with children in the
upper elementary grades. Summarize the main elements of the
Project Approach, and identify at least two ways that it
exemplifies meaningful learning for children of any age.
Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences first included
seven different kinds of intelligence; he currently includes nine.
Reflect on what you have learned about this theory, and
consider the differences between the traditional theory of
intelligence and the theory of multiple intelligences as
summarized in this week's Learning Resources. Then, explain
how children in an educational setting might benefit from a
teacher who understands and believes in Howard Gardner's
theory of multiple intelligences.
Reflect on what you have learned this week about emotional
intelligence and social/emotional learning. Consider the "four
branches" of emotional intelligence
—
accurately perceiving emotions in oneself and others, using
emotions to facilitate thinking, understanding emotional
meanings, and managing emotions (as defined by researchers
John Mayer and Peter Salovey
). Then, explain why emotional intelligence is a vital attribute
in both teaching and learning situations.
