THEORY OF MULTIPLE INTELLIGENCES
The theory of multiple intelligences developed by Howard Gardner from Harvard Un
iversity identifies seven intelligences that deserve recognition in all learning
experiences.
1) Linguistic Intelligence
Sensitivity to the meaning and order of words. Language experts, writers, and pu
blic speakers use this intelligence.
2) Logical-Mathematical Intelligence
Ability in mathematics and other complex logical systems. Computer
technologists, engineers, and scientists are drawn from this group.
3) Musical Intelligence
Ability to understand and create music. Musicians, composers, and dancers show a
heightened musical intelligence.
4) Spatial Intelligence
Ability to perceive the visual world accurately and recreate (or alter) it in th
e mind or on paper. Designers, architects, and air traffic controllers specializ
e in this intelligence.
5) Bodily-Kinesthetic Intelligence
Ability to use the body in a skilled way for self-expression, goal attainment, o
r entertainment. Athletes, dancers, and actors excel in this intelligence.
6) Interpersonal Intelligence
Ability to perceive and understand other individuals their moods, desires, and mot
ivations. Business leaders, politicians, teachers, and therapists use this intel
ligence.
7) Intrapersonal Intelligence
Understanding personal emotions, values, and philosophy. People who write intros
pectively, counsellors, inventors, and religious leaders are skilled in this int
elligence.
