So, What is multiple intelligences ?

• The theory of multiple intelligences was developed in 1983 by Dr. Howard Gardner

Who is Howard Gardner? • Howard Gardner is a psychologist and

Professor at Harvard University's Graduate School of Education.

• Based on his study of many people, Gardner developed the theory of multiple intelligences.

• According to Gardner, 8 different types of intelligence are displayed by humans.

Howard Gardner’s theory

• Howard Gardner defines intelligence as "the

capacity to solve problems or to fashion

products that are valued in one or more

cultural setting.”

Gardner’s Intelligence Types

1. Logical-Mathematical Intelligence

2. Verbal-Linguistic Intelligence

3. Spatial Intelligence

4. Musical Intelligence

5. Bodily-Kinesthetic Intelligence

6. Interpersonal Intelligence

7. Intrapersonal Intelligence

8. Naturalist Intelligence

Gardner’s Intelligence Types

Q: Can people have more than one intelligence

type?

A: YES!• Although one intelligence type may be more

dominant, Gardner claims that the eight intelligences very rarely operate alone.

• The intelligences are used together and typically complement each other as people develop skills or solve problems.
