In the Chapter 7 reading as well as the review of websites, students explored the topic of intelligence and the various theories that exist to explain it. One such theory is Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences. After reading the chapter and reviewing the websites, students are asked to write a reflection paper on what they have learned about Gardner's theory and other ways in which intelligence is measured.

The main questions students are required to reflect on and answer is: What are the similarities and differences between Gardner’s Theory of Multiple Intelligences and other approaches to measuring intelligence in the field of psychology? In order to answer this question sufficiently, students are to compare and contrast Gardner’s theory with at least 1 other, describing both and discussing which they believe, based on research, is a more accurate approach to understanding intelligence. The paper should demonstrate ability to synthesize information, as well as to find and apply research from peer-reviewed journals, and should demonstrate critical analysis skills, as well as clear and effective communication skills utilizing APA guidelines.

Guidelines:

1. The paper should be at least 2-3 pages long (double-spaced, APA 7th edition formatting).

2. The paper should provide a summary/overview of Gardner's theory and a summary of one other theory of intelligence.

3. The paper should compare the two theories and take a clear position on which the student believes is a more accurate approach to understanding intelligence.

4. All factual information included should be cited (via peer-reviewed, academic research). All opinions should be similarly supported by peer-reviewed, academic research (i.e., what are opinions are based on?). Please note: Websites are NOT appropriate sources and are NOT accepted.

5. The paper should be formatted according to APA guidelines, including, but not limited to: title page, in-text citations, and reference page.

6. Although this is a reflection paper, it should be written in a formal, scholarly tone.
