Theory of multiple intelligences

Multiple intelligence, what is it and how do we determine how to measure such a thing? There are many different components that make-up multiple intelligence and there have been several different ways to measure what our multiple intelligence is. When it comes to Lynn Waterhouse she believes that multiple intelligence theory and other theories such as the Mozart Effect and Emotional Intelligence, that these types of theories should not be practiced in a classroom that they have no effect on a child’s capacity to learn and develop new tactics to accessing better knowledge of information taught. Her research has found that the two pathways in the brain that could be evidence of a multiple intelligence theory. The pathways are the System 1 and…

In 1983 Dr. Howard Gardner, who is a developmental psychologist, unfolded the theory of multiple intelligences. Such theory is based on eight different levels of intelligence, which include: Verbal-Linguistic Intelligence, Mathematical-Logical Intelligence, Visual-Spatial Intelligence, Intrapersonal Intelligence, Bodily-Kinesthetic Intelligence, Interpersonal Intelligence, and Naturalist Intelligence (Research). It is a proven fact that we all learn at different levels. Schools cannot intend to…

The multiple intelligence (“MI”) theory created by Howard Gardner, is based on eight different intelligences which reflect a person 's intellectual ability. This model of intelligence challenges other theories such as Alfred Binet’s theory of general intelligence. Binet’s theory focuses on a person 's ability to obtain high-ranking test scores and their overall general cognitive capability (Denig, 2004, 96). The MI theory differs due to the fact that it explores how test scores are not…

Gardner’s theory suggests that the traditional view of intelligence, based on I.Q. testing, is inadequate.…

Howard Gardner’s multiple intelligence theory changed the idea of learning drastically. Many people believed you could only learn one way, by listening to a teacher lecture in front of the classroom. Tests like IQ tests determined how smart you were. How can you define intelligence? Howard Gardner defines it as “a biopsychological potential to process information in certain kinds of ways, in order to solve problems or create products that are valued in one or more cultural settings” (Gardner…

In the article written by Karen Goodnough (2001) “Multiple intelligences theory: A framework for personalizing science curricula” it spoke about multiple intelligence (MI) theory and Dave’s experience.

Intelligence is a word that can mean vastly different things to different people in the world. Intelligence can range from the classic definition of smart to knowing how to successfully forge priceless pieces of art. A person’s perspective of something, such as a word, comes from their personal experiences and upbringing. This parallels why someone might excel in something and fail in something else, thus giving them different levels of intelligence in one subject over another. According to…
