Howard E. GardnerThe father of MIT
Howard Earl Gardner (born July 11, 1943) is an American developmental psychologist and a professor at Harvard University. He introduced his theory of Multiple Intelligences in his book Frames of Mind: The Theory of Multiple Intelligences (1983).
As Gardner himself states
‘…all human beings possess not just a single intelligence…’
‘…we… are better described as having a set of relatively autonomous intelligences.’
