Description
Rinvolucri relates the ability to listen to Gardner’s interpersonal intelligence. Rinvolucri suggests that students would benefit of training in listening not only from a linguistic point of view, but also from a more empathetic interpersonal approach. They need to learn to lay aside all presuppositions and listen to the speaker without internal comments to really listen and understand the speaker’s point of view.
