Multiple Intelligences TheoryMultiple Intelligences Theory

It was first published in 1983 in Gardner's book, Frame of Mind. The theory consist of eight ways people understand and learn. This model allows you to teach and understand the different aspects of intelligence, learning styles, and behaviors.

Multiple Intelligence , Manisha Indani 2

The theory of multiple intelligences is Howard Gardner’s theory that proposes that people are not born with all of the intelligence they will ever have. It says that intelligence can be learned throughout life.


Also, it claims that everyone is intelligent in at least eight different ways and can develop each aspect of intelligence to an average level of competency. Intelligence, as defined by Gardner, is the ability to solve problems or fashion products that are valuable in one or more cultural settings.we can improve education by addressing the multiple intelligences of our students.

Spatial Spatial IntelligenceIntelligence

Spatial intelligence is the brain’s ability to perceive and interpret visual stimuli. In other words, it’s how our minds process what we see. Although not very recognized, spatial intelligence is very important in the arts and in everyday life.

understanding other people. It’s an ability we all need, but is at a premium if you are a teacher, clinician, salesperson, or a politician. Anybody who deals with other people has to be skilled in the interpersonal sphere.

“What is intrapersonal intelligence?”Intrapersonal intelligence is self-knowledge and the ability

to act adaptively on the basis of that knowledge. This intelligence includes having an accurate picture of oneself

desires; and the capacity for self-discipline, self-understanding, and self-esteem. Essentially, it’s how well

you know yourself.

Education, Multiple Intelligence, & TechnologyEducation, Multiple Intelligence, & Technology

According to Howard Gardner: * Schools tend to teach in only two forms of human intelligence: - Language and Logic; while ignoring the other forms

* We all encompass the Eight forms of Intelligence, it is what "makes us human."

* Technology tends to be called "the solution" for our educational problems. Yet if not implemented properly, it tends to fail; educational TV, slide show projectors, etc...

* In order to make technology effective we must declare our educational goals, and demonstrate how a particular technology can help us to achieve them. We just also provide technical assistance.


Education, Multiple Intelligence, & TechnologyEducation, Multiple Intelligence, & Technology

* Technology can be use to tap into the Multiple intelligences - Different software can do different intelligences

* The Internet can help them tap into different resources online, hence they can tap into different subjects; music, math, etc..

* Tapping into the different Intelligence allows us to better educate our students. Different students learn in different ways; therefore teaching in an array of methods, allows us to better teach our students. * According to Gardner, Educational and Technology will only succeed, if: "those in charge with education remain clear on what they want to achieve for our children and vigilant that the technology serves these needs." - Howard Gardner
