He conducts workshops for teachers and school administrators interested in implementing MI theory. He was an instructor at Kent State University for 12+ years where he assisted practicing teachers to learn how to use their multiple intelligences to achieve personal and professional goals. He has been described as a "compulsive learner" and has been developing and implementing the MIDAS for over 25 years. He has presented results of his research at both national and international conferences. He is also a poet. Dr. Shearer is president of Multiple Intelligences Research and Consulting, Inc., which has received numerous grants from private foundations and schools to work with teachers in devising creative strategies for implementing the MIDAS in classrooms.
