Multiple Intelligence Project

According to Gardner's Multiple Intelligences Survey, my strongest intelligence is Music. Which I was hoping would be the outcome since I am a musician. To integrate this with my Multiple Intelligences Project, I decided to use a little bit of technology and create a Jeopardy game which would incorporate questions covering material that a music class would typically cover. I like this project because in a classroom setting, I strongly feel that it would encourage collaborative learning. To play this game, which could easily be used as a review for whichever unit you are doing, the class needs to be split into two different groups. As the groups take turns, and are presented a question, they would need to collaborate to decide on an answer. This helps with retrieval or distributed practice if using this for a review of some sort. Hopefully, it would also help with the automaticity of the students knowledge. In short, I believe that this is a fun, yet very effective way to review material with your students and get away from the every day monotonous rigors of classroom life.
