The document discusses Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences which defines intelligence as the ability to solve problems or create products valued in cultural settings. It then summarizes the eight intelligences identified by Gardner: linguistic, logical-mathematical, spatial, bodily-kinesthetic, musical, interpersonal, intrapersonal, and naturalist. Examples of teaching activities, materials, strategies and presentation skills are provided for each intelligence. The document cautions against misusing the theory and advocates using multiple paths that highlight students' strengths.
