Up close and personal with Howard Gardner

Harvard University professor of education Howard Gardner has been going around trying to help people to change their mind about how they see things, to look at issues from a different perspective.

“I want my children to understand the world, but not just because the world is fascinating and the human mind is curious. I want them to understand it so that they will be positioned to make it a better place. Knowledge is not the same as morality, but we need to understand if we are to avoid past mistakes and move in productive directions.” – Prof of Education Howard Gardner, Harvard University.
