This is the occurrence that Howard Gardner was trying to understand when he came up with the Multiple Intelligence Theory. Let’s dive in and find out what this theory is all about and how it approaches the manner in which we understand new concepts. THE MULTIPLE INTELLIGENCE THEORY
The Multiple Intelligence Theory is a psychological theory about the human mind. It is against the notion that intelligence is a single trait that we are born with and can’t change. It states that there are at least eight different human intelligences that all human beings possess. This theory came about after conducting research on the way people understand things. Howard Gardner believes that it documents the extent to which one student will have different kinds of minds which make her understand, perform, remember and learn in a unique way. Gardner identified eight different “intelligences” that influence the way we perceive and understand things.
