a more profound impact than others. This can be attributed to the fact that the mind has many ways of learning and assimilating data. A learning style is the method though which people gather information about their environment. As educators‚ it is our responsibility to inform ourselves of all learning styles‚ in order to reach each of our students in the most effective way.

Dr. Howard Gardner was the first to suggest the theory of Multiple Intelligence in 1983. This theory suggests that the traditional grading for one’s IQ‚ which was mostly based on linguistic and logical-mathematical intelligence‚ was too limited.
