Multiple intelligences
1.
2. For Gardner, intelligence is:
•The ability to create an effective product or
offer a service that is valued in a culture.
•A set of skills that make it possible for a
person to solve problems in life.
•The potential for finding or creating
solutions for problems, which involves
gathering new knowledge.
3. Dr. Howard Gardner, a psychologist and professor
of neuroscience from Harvard University,
developed the theory of Multiple Intelligences in
1983.
According to Howard Gardner, human beings have
nine different kinds of intelligence that reflect
different ways of interacting with the world.
Each person has a unique combination or profile.
Although we each have all nine intelligences, no
two individuals have them in the same exact
configuration.
5. This area deals with spatial
judgment and the ability to
visualize with the mind's eye.
Careers which suit those with
this type of intelligence include
artists, designers and
architects. A spatial person is
also good with puzzles.
6. This area has to do with words,
spoken or written. People with
high verbal-linguistic
intelligence display a facility
with words and languages. They
are typically good at reading,
writing, telling stories and
memorizing words along with
dates.
7. This area has to do with
logic, abstractions, reasoning, an
d numbers. It correlates strongly
with traditional concepts of
"intelligence" or IQ. Careers
which suit those with this
intelligence include
scientists, physicists, mathemati
cians, logicians, engineers, doctor
s, etc.
8. The core elements of the bodily
intelligence are control of one's
bodily motions and the capacity to
handle objects skillfully. This
intelligence also includes a sense of
timing, a clear sense of the goal of a
physical action, along with the ability
to train responses so they become
like reflexes.
9. This area has to do with
sensitivity to
sounds, rhythms, tones, and
music. People with a high
musical intelligence normally
have good pitch and may even
have absolute pitch, and are
able to sing, play musical
instruments, and compose music.
10. This area has to do with
interaction with others. In
theory, people who have a high
interpersonal intelligence tend to
be extroverts, characterized by
their sensitivity to others'
moods, feelings, temperaments
and motivations, and their ability
to cooperate in order to work as
part of a group.
11. This area has to do with
introspective and self-reflective
capacities. They are skillful at
deciphering their own feelings
and motivations. This refers to
having a deep understanding of
the self; what are your
strengths/ weaknesses, what
makes you unique, you can predict
your own reactions/ emotions.
12. This area has to do with
nature, nurturing and relating
information to one’s natural
surroundings. Careers which
suit those with this
intelligence include
naturalists, farmers and
gardeners.
13. Ability and reactivity to pose
(and ponder) questions about
life, death, and ultimate
realities. Ideal career:
cosmologist, philosopher.
14. “The secret to classroom success with all
of our learners is to treat EVERY student
as gifted and talented”. Our job as
teachers is to find that talent and work
with it so our learners can make the
progress that they deserve, at the same
time, we have to develop meaningful
activities in order to achieve our goals
with all the students and their different
abilities.
