Multiple Intelligences

Howard Gardner is a professor at Harvard University. In 1983, Gardner developed the theory of Multiple Intelligences which finds that there are many different kinds of intelligences that can be measured to determine potential in children and adults.

It is of the utmost importance that we recognize and nurture all of the varied human intelligences, and all of the combinations of intelligences. We are all so different largely because we all have different combinations of intelligences. If we recognize this, I think we will have at least a better chance of dealing appropriately with the many problems that we face in the world. -Howard Gardner
