Artistic Intelligences: Implications for Education

By: William J. Moody

Based on Howard Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences, this volume argues for a more pluralistic view of intellect and a recognition of the importance of educating the artistic intelligences. Editor William J.Moody had brought together papers by a number of America's educational leaders, including Howard Gardner, Elliot Eisner, Mary Hatwood Futrell, and Maxine Greene, in the first concentrated examination of the artistic aspects of the theory and its impact on arts education. Challenges to as well as models of implementation are discussed. In addition, specialists in visual arts, creative writing, dance, acting, and music offer their assessments of the implications for their particular fields.
