Visual/Spatial and Musical Intelligences

The Effects on Sixth Grade Ohio Proficiency (OPT) Math Scores

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The adoption of policy relating to the implementation of Multiple Intelligences within school curriculum is suggested to be valuable and beneficial in the establishment of producing stronger academic skills and testing performance. With regards to math ability and performance on the Ohio Proficiency Math test, it has been shown that students who have individualized interests in musical intelligence (instrumental, appreciation, musicality, and vocal) and visual intelligence (artistic design, construction, and imagery), earn higher math scores - a positive effect on the math portion of the Ohio Proficiency test. This book provides an investigation into musical and visual intelligences and the benefits of offering arts-based classes in traditional schools. It also provides a colorful picture that students who are involved in arts-based classes not only enjoy school a lot more, they progress in ways which were originally thought impossible.
