4. An introduction....
Howard Gardner is An American
Developmental Psychologist. He defined
“Multiple Intelligence” in the “Frames of
mind”(1983). He included the last two
intelligences in “Intelligence
Reframed”(1999)
5. Howard Gardner states that...
I now conceptualize an intelligence as a bio-psychological
potential to process information that can be activated
in a cultural settings to solve problems or create
products that are of value in a culture...intelligences
are not things that can be seen or counted. Instead ,
they are potentials presumably, neural ones that will
or will not be activated, depending upon the value of a
particular culture, the opportunities available in that
culture, and the personal decisions made by individuals
and/or their families , school-teachers and others.
(Gardner 1999)
