EMPLOYING THEORY OF MULTIPLE INTELLIGENCES TO TEACHING AND LEARNING MODERN JAPANESE

Abstract

Mentioning students’ learning approaches and manners, Willing (1994) based upon their interest as well as their potential, he categorized the learning manners into four categories as follows: communicative, analytical, oriented, concrete manners. Basing on this categorization, Wong and Nunan (2011) continued to classify the four manners of learning into four psychological categories as follows: active, passive, independent, and dependent environment. Each individual has various approaches, techniques, forms of learning for his own. This creates a diversity and a variety of learning manners in classroom. The diversity of manners has raised a lot of significant difficulties for teachers in organizing teaching and learning activities
