things as selective memory and the ability to completely tune things out so that one can think of their own agenda. However, this article goes on to explain how
children can be assessed as to what type of intelligences they possess. The list of intelligences is based on biological and cultural research, and differs greatly from that
of the traditional view that recognizes only verbal and computational levels of skill. Today technology gives us at our fingertips more knowledge than ever before. We have access
to information that is vaster than some can even comprehend. In order to tap into this knowledge, a child must learn to experience the knowledge and turn it into
his or her own. The way this is done is through learning what others have already experienced, and then putting that experience into our own format for our own use
of the knowledge learned. We need to change our way of thinking that it is not the teacher who should be the center of attention in a classroom, but
the student. Right now in the majority of classrooms the teacher is simply giving students information that he or she is expected to assimilate quietly and with no input.
Instead of this method, the teachers, in order to make learning a true learning experience, should be putting together ways that cause the student to learn through doing.
Schools today should teach students to produce work based on their knowledge-experience which is based on activities and tasks that have need for them to use their hands, their brains,
and to think and reason these processes through. Dorow, Laura; Fisch, Lois, et al. "Knowledge, values and teaching-practices needed for inclusive teaching." Educational Forum, (1998): Spring, 62(3).
