MI in EdnoLand

What is EdnoLand?

Developed in line with the Theory of Multiple Intelligences (MI) by Professor Howard Gardner, EdnoLand is a comprehensive IT-based dynamic learning programme specifically developed to help pre-schoolers achieve their maximum potential by discovering, developing and awakening all their multiple intelligences.

To the pre-schoolers, EdnoLand offers engaging thematic modules delivered mainly through computers. Each module has been carefully designed to stimulate the interest of a wide spectrum of children with varying intelligences.

To the parents, EdnoLand provides personalised information about their child's learning in school. Parents can keep themselves updated on their child's progress, view their child's electronic portfolio, access activity resources and even receive personal e-mails from their own child.

To the teachers, the system provides useful, immediate feedback about their class as well as online resources and suggested follow-up activities that they can extend and integrate into their teaching beyond the computer environment.

EdnoLand's MI Vision

Children are intelligent in different ways and they learn in different ways. EdnoLand celebrates this intellectual diversity and is dedicated to helping you maximise your child's potential and nurture the genius in your child.

EdnoLand's teaching repertoire encompasses all 8 multiple intelligences to ensure that the content is accessible to all children, giving them equal opportunities to excel. By extending its curriculum beyond the computer room, EdnoLand aims to synchronise the development of all the intelligences of the child off the computer, in the kindergarten and at home.

We believe that in order to maximise the multiple intelligences of young children, we must help teachers and parents appreciate the concept of multiple intelligences and embrace it. They must understand the implications of the MI Theory and be ready to apply the principles and practices to help children achieve their maximum potential.

We see great challenges ahead as we embark on this extremely meaningful mission of innovating a MI programme that uses technology to help pre-schoolers achieve their maximum potential.

By offering a synchonised platform that is in line with the principles of brain-based learning and the MI Theory, we will work hand-in-hand with teachers and parents so that we can better understand each pre-schooler's abilities and be more equipped to develop programmes that will help them maximise their learning.

Our ultimate objective is to move our pre-schoolers' learning beyond the lower-order thinking activities into a broad range of higher-order cognitive tasks that will prepare them for the true challenges in life.
