Uso da teoria das inteligências múltiplas para aprimorar a educação científica: ensino de química

Abstract

Gardner’s multiple intelligences theory defines eight types of intelligences, which are involved in the knowledge apprehension. The teachers may use this theory to develop pedagogical habits that can better teaching and, this way, improve the scientific education. This work presents an overview on educational reforms of science in America, a bibliographic review about Gardner’s theory and its utilization chemistry classes, including strategies of evaluation.
