Teaching Mathematics using Multiple intelligence approach

By Sumayya Khan

Mathematics has by far been considered a subject associated with fear, enigma and mystery by children and adults alike. Teachers, the way they teach, the mode they use, school and class environment etc. are all important factors associated to teaching and learning of Mathematics. But what is the reason behind one individual understanding by one method better than the other and yet another student may understand mathematics better using some other method? It boils down to the fact that just as different methods need to be used to teach mathematics

students have varying intelligences which they use and can be used to grasp a concept. Just as with all intelligences, there are many ways to be number/logic smart. Some students will demonstrate it through science fair projects, yet may not do as well on science tests. Others may struggle on mathematics assignments because their teacher wants them to show their work, but they do the computations quickly in their head, and don't feel as though they should have to show them on paper. Still others will do very well in drafting classes where they can draw with a ruler, but may do poorly in art, because they cannot draw freehand.
