• Theory that people are not born with all of the intelligence they will ever have

• Intelligence can be learned throughout life.

• Everyone is intelligent in at least seven different ways and can develop each aspect of intelligence to an average level of competency.

• Intelligence, as defined by Gardner, is the ability to solve problems or fashion products that are valuable in one or more cultural settings.

Page 3: Howard Gardner’s: Multiple Intelligences

The 9 intelligences included in Gardner’s theory are:

*Verbal/ Linguistic

*Visual/ Spatial

*Interpersonal

*Musical/ Rhythmic

*Logical/ Mathematical

*Intrapersonal

*Bodily/ Kinesthetic

*Naturalistic

*Existential

Has been tested extensively and is evidenced in species other than human beings.

Spatial Intelligenc

e

Page 17: Howard Gardner’s: Multiple Intelligences

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.

Page 18: Howard Gardner’s: Multiple Intelligences

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.

“What is intrapersonal intelligence?”

Having self-knowledge and the ability to act adaptively on the basis of that knowledge.

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!
