Multiple Intelligences vs. Learning Styles
A Word From Verywell

Content: Researcher Mindy L. Kornhaber has suggested that the theory of multiple intelligences is so popular within the field of education because it: "Validates educators' everyday experience: students think and learn in many different ways. It also provides educators with a conceptual framework for organizing and reflecting on curriculum assessment and pedagogical practices. In turn, this reflection has led many educators to develop new approaches that might better meet the needs of the range of learners in their classrooms." 7 ﻿
