I. Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences
I. Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences
1. Multiple Intelligences: Gardner proposed that there are not just one or two,
but eight distinct intelligences, each representing a different way of
processing information and solving problems.
2. Individual Differences: This theory acknowledges the diversity of human
abilities and the idea that each person possesses a unique blend of these
intelligences.
3. Education and Assessment: Gardner's theory challenges traditional
educational practices and assessments that primarily focus on linguistic and
logical-mathematical intelligences. He suggests that a broader range of
intelligences should be recognized and nurtured.
4. Cultural and Social Relevance: The Theory of Multiple Intelligences has
cultural and social relevance as it values diverse ways of knowing and
learning.
