中國古典詩歌是中國文化中最美、最易引發共鳴的部份，然而為了因應升學考試的壓力，中學時代的國文課，教師常花較多時間在字詞的解讀釋義上，無法在課堂上運用各種教學活動，讓學生體會古典詩歌之美。因此，在大學的國文課堂，應發展出和中學時代不一樣的教法，將重點放在美感賞析與獨立思考上。本文基於大學國文通識化的思考，以古典詩歌為切入點，融入西方的多元智能教育理論：從八大智能的不同面向來欣賞古典詩歌，可拓展其廣闊的意涵，並探索其中更深邃的隱喻與引申；再配合八大智能的教學方式，一首詩可以發展出數十種讀法與教法。使不同天賦資質的學生，透過多元的學習管道，都能進入古典詩歌的殿堂；讓古典詩歌的美感情意，潤澤每個人的生活世界與生命情境。
