Stimulating Multiple Intelligences in Infant Education From an Augmented Didactic Itinerary

Abstract

This chapter investigates the contributions made by augmented reality (AR) to develop multiple intelligences in infant education, along with the opportunities offered by augmented didactic itineraries (ADI) as a suitable formula for the global activation of different intelligences by means of AR resources. The methodological guidelines followed to prepare an ADI are explained, and the case study method is adopted for the purpose of describing a model aimed at infant education schoolchildren—used in teacher training—in which are specified the activities included, together with the AR resources and applications that it comprises. More precisely, this ADI takes children's literature as a starting point and especially activates naturalistic, spatial, and bodily kinesthetic intelligence. Likewise, its training potential is analyzed from a didactic, digital and creative dimension so that it can serve as a model for future teachers to design their own aids.
