Guest Lectures (BCom)

Guest Lecture : Multiple Intelligence

 guest lecture was held for 4th semester B.Com students on the topic “Multiple Intelligence” on 13th March 2019 in the classroom C104. The participation strength was 70 students and the faculty in-charge was Ms.Manjula. The speaker for the session was Mr. Jason SS, who is a certified trainer for Multiple Intelligence (MI). He started the session with MI-activities, focussed on nurturing Multiple-Intelligence in a motivated and creative manner, beyond improving their memory, number skills or knowledge and transforming the way they view themselves and how they approached their lives. He showed us how to strengthen the creative imagination and develop life skills that are required for learning and living in this fast-paced multi-tasking world. He quoted Havard Gardner who said, “All human beings possess all nine intelligences in varying amounts. Each person has a different intellectual composition. We can improve education by addressing the multiple intelligences of our students. These intelligences are located in different areas of the brain and can either work independently or together. These intelligences may define the human species.” To help understand how students learn best he asked them to take a short Multiple Intelligences Self- Inventory and showed them how to use it in their future work. He concluded with a class activity designed to make students understand the use of MI in their careers and aimed to examine the multiple intelligence profiles of the graduate students.
