one parl or type of intelligence. There are other ways that we
think of intelligence, for example the creativity that you need in
order to find answers to questions that you've never seen
or to grasp new concepts.

This bring.s us to the American psychologist Howard Gardner.


Gardner says that there isn't just one type of intelligence. There
are what he calls 'multiple intelligences', He talks about seven
different types of intelligence, shown in the table opposite. Of
course, each of us may be naturally strong in more than just
of these intelligence types,

When you look at the table, you can see that Gardner's multiple
intelligences cover everything we do in our lives and is a much
a::t:.
more complete and realistic way of thinking about intelligence.
!:'.49
For example, we all know people who aren't so good
but who are very strong in logic or mathematics. We would
probably all agree that this doesn't mean one person is more
intelligent than another. They're both intelligent, but in different
ways, with different strengths. One important reason for it not
being very easy to measure intelligence is because it all
on what type of intelligence we're talking about.

The good news is that most of Gardner's intelligences can be


developed. With practice, you can learn to see things in a more
scientific or logical way, or you can learn to appreciate literature
music. lt is possible for children to become great musicians if
start early, and there are many bilingualor multilingual children ir
the world. The interesting thing here is that your life opportunities
can make a big difference to your intelligence. lf a child lives in
an environment where they speak two languages they'll learn
to understand and speak them, lf somebody has access to a
musical instrument and has lessons, we naturally expect them
to learn more than somebody who doesn't. So intelligence is nct
just a question of being born intelligent. The environment you lile
in can make a huge difference.
