EDUCATIONAL INNOVATION IN LECTURING SESSIONS

This article delves into the evolving realm of educational innovation in lecturing, shedding light on the necessity of employing novel methodologies and shifting paradigms in teaching and learning. Amidst increasing awareness and adoption of multifaceted intelligence theories, there exists an untapped potential of various frameworks that could revolutionize our traditional educational systems. Focusing primarily on Sternberg's and Gardner's classification schemes, the article explores significant theories like the Theory of Multiple Intelligences and the Triarchic Theory of Intelligence. The rising interest in these approaches suggests a paradigm shift towards a more holistic understanding of intelligence and creativity, challenging conventional views of educational delivery. Moreover, the discourse expands on the impact of globalization on education, advocating for a cosmopolitan outlook in teaching practices. By addressing these pressing concerns and trends, the article prompts an in-depth reassessment of established pedagogical practices, thereby aiming to enhance the teaching-learning process and ultimately, the quality of education.
