Sumario:This article presents an experience report about practical activities that addressed the topic of electrical wiring in high school. The activities were part of a larger qualitative research on methodological pluralism and multiple intelligences in the teaching of electrical circuits. Thus, in addition to sharing the proposal, this work aims to understand the potential of activities in stimulating different intel ligences and in increasing students' motivation and leadership. Approximately 30 high school students from a public school in Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, participated in the research. The data were obtained through observations, audio recording and pho tographic records. As a method of analysis, we opted for the Discursive Textual Analysis. Due to the nature of the activity, it was ob served that the proposal stimulated the use of skills that are often not explored in traditional education. The analysis suggests that at least three intelligences were stimulated during activities (spatial, bodily-kinesthetic and interpersonal). Finally, there was also a great involvement and motivation of students with the activity, reinforcing the importance of continuing the search for a more active, collab orative and meaningful education.
