Creativity and Multiple Intelligence?


Before i start to talk about this interesting issue i wanna mention two aspects related with this video. Miss Beatriz showed us a presentation called "Multiple Intelligence" last week and I think that it`s absolutely connected with Ken Robinson`s topic because some of teachers in the schools don`t appreciate children´s capacity and they don`t realized that exist more ways to learn. Although the creativity is an important aspect on children`s development none of the teachers wonder about that. The second aspect that i wanna share with you is related with all the texts that we have to read with Priscilla. Now,we know that if we considerated to the student as a individual person we increase their confidence and they can develope themselves as an autonomous student because is essential for every person to be respected and every decision that they made. However, if we are thinking about themselves like an object, and we suppress t student`s development they can´t find the way to develop their creativity.


Well, The schools believes that the human being is a machine and they can put on them every knowledge that they want . Many people think that it`s not important to considerate the creativity because it`s not part of the curriculum so that to think about that as Robinson said : " the body is just vehicle of the mind". I think it´s absolutely ridiculous to think on it because some of the students have other capacity like dancing or playing the guitar and most of the time these kind of students don´t feel comfortable with the school because they don´t appreciate the diversity of their students.


In conclusion, We must change our minds in the way that we need to considerate the multiple intelligence and the differents process in children`s learning,so that creativity is one of the most important issues that we increase in our next students.

First of all, I wanna tell you a little story before I begin with my interests studying English Pedagogy.

When I finished my studies in HighSchool, i had not idea what i wanted to study,so that i wanted to be prepared for PSU and give my best, but my father told me that my best choice was to study in that moment. Althought i wasn't sure about what career to choose, i studied Sciences for 2 years.


Well, the thing is that i`m pretty conscious about the huge change i made However, I chose this special career because as my father said: English opens doors. I'll have the opportunity to travel and practice my skills there. I must say that in my first year i wasn`t completely happy with the career because i have had a different education area, so that affects my concentration in this specific humanist area.


On the other hand, I chose this university because it has a huge prestige in education. Besides, i was trying to connect my educational interests with the best private univesity.

Well, day by day i`m convencing myself that i chose well because as a teacher you have the power and responsability to do good things in others minds. In addition , i have the most difficult duty in the society because as a teacher i must always increase the English skills.

What`s more my tools need to be sound and the whole sense of the word.


In conclusion, to be a teacher is a long race that we must prepared as an athlete because our tools will be the support in our's students future.

Today is raining!


What a brilliant idea that God sent us, today! and anybody brings an umbrella, but at least we don`t have smoke in the air =). As well as the weather! we have too much to study, so we can go to our house and drink a cup of hot chocolate and read, read and read xD.

Today`s class was in the lab and it`s the only reason why i wrote.

Talking about the same issue i found lots of quizzes and i did some of them, it was very productive because i learnt new vocabulary and new expressions, so i will try to used them as much as possible.

By the way, i promise i will go to every worshop and the girls know why :P.

it could`ve been different from the very beggining. =)
