Content: This brings us to the conclusion that there might be more than one type of intelligence and that these different types of intelligence are independent. This is what Howard Gardner's multiple intelligences suggests in large part. Gardner is an American psychologist that received the Prince of Asturias Prize in 2011 in the Social Sciences category because his theory implied global education and psychology reforms.

What does multiple intelligences mean? As we mentioned before, the multiple intelligences theory suggests that intelligence is not singular but rather something plural with many variations. Part of what Gardener's theory of multiple intelligences brought to education is the idea that if we develop different interests and abilities as we grow up, then we're more likely to have different types of intelligence if we receive appropriate and diverse education from a young age. This is why over time, other types of intelligence have been added to this American psychologist's original list of 8. This theory helps to broaden educational prospects although there is one setback since there is no universal standard.
