What are three positive ways that multiple intelligence theory has been used in schools?

Answer 1

Recess/P.E: many kids are gifted athletically. If there were no recess or time for kids to be active and play sports them we would not be allowing them to express themselves in the way they can do best.
Art/music: by offering these subjects, same thing. Some kids are talented and given a chance will be successful in these areas. How do you know unless you are encouraged or try?!
DVDs/movies in history and science: both areas deal with abstract information. By seeing historical costumes, or artifacts from the past, Visual learners can better imagine what like was like long ago. Computer animations or graphics of biology or microscopic things, how planets rotate etc. help the kids to visualize what these things look like.
Not all kids can learn at the same rate or in the same way.
Think of how some people can take directions just by listening: "turn right at the light, go two blocks north, then turn left.." Other people say"Just show me a map!"
Two different types of learners. Schools ought to try and reach as many styles as possible.

Answer 2

My children had a teacher who used a round table with eight chairs around it. She had eight frames that stood up--one at each chair. Each frame had a different intelligence printed on it.

She would take some kind of subject matter and put it in the middle of the table. Then the kids would sit at the chairs and describe the matter through the frame of "linguistic", or kinetic", etc. The kids would move around the table to try to apply each of the intelligences.

I guess that's just one way I can think of.
