Howard Gardner’s:Multiple Intelligences
• Theory that people are not born with all of the intelligence they will ever have
• Intelligence can be learned throughout life.

The 9 intelligences included in Gardner’s theory are:
*Verbal/ Linguistic
*Visual/ Spatial
*Interpersonal
*Musical/ Rhythmic
*Logical/ Mathematical
*Intrapersonal
*Bodily/ Kinesthetic
*Naturalistic
*Existential
There are 8 Criteria for Defining Multiple
Intelligences:Each of the intelligences:
can potentially be isolated by brain damage.
has a process of developing during normal child development and has a peak end-state performance.
Has been tested extensively and is evidenced in species other than human beings.

Spatial Intelligenc
e
What is spatial intelligence?
The brain’s ability to perceive and interpret visual stimuli. In other words, it’s how our minds process what we see.
Why is spatial intelligence important?
The way we visually perceive and interpret the world around us makes us who we are.
In the arts, the ability to transfer a vision to a painting, sculpture, or film is a key quality.
Careers such as architecture, require a person to transfer a vision of a structure into a blueprint.
“Average” people use it everyday to remember small, but important facts, like how to travel from school to your house.

Having an accurate picture of oneself (one’s strengths and weaknesses); awareness of inner moods, intentions, motivations, temperaments, and desires; and the capacity for self-discipline, self-understanding, and self-esteem.
Essentially, it’s how well you know yourself!
