DMIT

Introduction to DMIT:

Dermatoglyphics, derived from the ancient Greek words ‘Derma’ meaning skin and ‘Glyph’ meaning carving, constitutes the scientific study of fingerprints. Dr. Harold Cummins, acclaimed as the Father of American Fingerprint Analysis, coined this term. Fingerprint identification, a practice entrenched for centuries, has stood the test of time.

Research into skin ridge patterns has unveiled a fascinating revelation – fingerprints form in the womb, becoming fully developed by the fourth month of pregnancy. This intriguing fact signifies that our fingerprints are genetically predetermined, impervious to environmental or experiential influences.

Scientific Dermatoglyphics research primarily concentrates on genetic exploration and the detection of chromosomal anomalies. In the past three decades, more than four thousand medical research papers have emerged, delving into the implications of skin ridge patterns.

About Multiple Intelligence Theory:

 “A prevalent method for assessing a child’s intelligence is through IQ tests. However, these tests often fall short. IQ tests primarily rely on linguistic, mathematical, and logical skills, leaving talents in sports, music, arts, and communication unexplored.

In 1983, Howard Gardner introduced the theory of multiple intelligences, aiming to provide a more comprehensive definition of intelligence and challenge the scientific validity of traditional IQ testing. According to Gardner, a child excelling in multiplication isn’t necessarily more intelligent overall than one struggling with it; the latter might possess a different kind of intelligence.

This perspective widens the horizon of how we perceive intelligence.

This wealth of research has uncovered the remarkable potential of dermatoglyphics in serving as indicators for various health conditions like congenital heart disease, cancer, intestinal disorders, Alzheimer’s disease, schizophrenia, autism, and other mental illnesses. Much of this groundbreaking research remains confined to international medical journals, awaiting wider recognition.

Prof Howard Gardner Is :

As a Senior Director at Harvard and a Professor of Cognition and Education, Howard Gardner has authored more than 20 books – most notably “Frames of Mind: The Theory of Multiple Intelligences.” This influential thinker has been honored with 26 honorary degrees and selected as one of the Top 100 Influential Thinkers in the World.

  • The ability to think visually and see future results
  • The ability to imagine things in your mind
  • The ability to perceive spatial information
  • Those with strong spatial intelligence are often good at solving puzzles. Artists, photographers, pilots, painters and architects often have this intelligence.
  • The ability to read, write, and communicate verbally
  • The ability to use language to express thoughts and understand others when
    speaking or writing
  • Tendency to learn best through reading, taking notes, listening to lectures,
    discussion, and debate]
  • This intelligence is common in writers, lawyers, philosophers, journalists, politicians,
    and teachers
  • The ability to distinguish among an individual’s own feelings, to develop accurate
    mental models of themselves, and use them to make decisions about life.
  • The capacity to know one’s self, Careers which suit those with this intelligence
    include philosophers, psychologists, theologians, writers and scientists.
  • The ability to reason and calculate
  • Enables individuals to use and appreciate abstract relations
  • The ability to manipulate numbers, quantities, operations, etc.
  • Many scientists, mathematicians, engineers, doctors and economists function in this
    level of intelligences.
  • The ability to see patterns in the natural world and to distinguish among living things
  • The ability to use features of the environment
  • Careers which suit those with this intelligence include wild life photographer,
    naturalists, conservationists, gardeners, and farmers.
  • Enables individuals to recognize and make distinctions among others’ feelings and
    intentions
  • The ability to work effectively with others and display empathy
  • Careers which suit those with this intelligence include politicians, managers,
    teachers, and social workers.
  • Individuals with bodily-kinesthetic intelligence are good at using their bodies to create products, solve problems, or present ideas and emotions.
  • They often enjoy acting or performing, and they usually excel at building and making things.
  • Some careers that are well-suited for people with this type of intelligence include athletes, dancers, actors, surgeons, builders, and soldiers.
  • The ability to create, communicate, and understand musical meanings and patterns.
  • Since there is a strong auditory component to this intelligence, those who possess it learn best via lecture. They often use songs or rhythms to learn and memorize information, and may work best with music playing in the background.
  • Careers which suit those with this intelligence include instrumentalists, singers, disc-jockeys, and composers.

Learning Styles

Learning styles are the different ways people learn best. Some people learn best by listening to audio recordings, others by reading texts, and others through interactive activities. Most people have a preferred learning style, but it is important to know that different learning styles work for different people. Some people learn best by listening to audio recordings, others by reading texts, and others through interactive activities. However, it is important to know that different learning styles work for different people.

The Three Main Learning Styles Are

  • Visual
  • Auditory
  • Kinesthetic
