The theory of multiple intelligences proposes that intelligence is not a single general ability but rather consists of at least eight specific intelligences. These include spatial, linguistic, logical-mathematical, bodily-kinesthetic, musical, interpersonal, intrapersonal, and naturalistic intelligences. The theory argues that traditional IQ tests are limited as they only measure some types of cognitive abilities and fail to capture other important intelligences. While questions remain about the theory, it has been useful for education by encouraging educators to broaden their focus beyond standardized testing and consider students' diverse strengths.

Howard Gardner’s Theory of Multiple Intelligencesjerica palomaria
Gardner’s Multiple Intelligences
1. Verbal-linguistic intelligence (well-developed verbal skills and
sensitivity to the sounds, meanings and rhythms of words)
2. Logical-mathematical intelligence (ability to think conceptually and
abstractly, and capacity to discern logical and numerical patterns)
3. Spatial-visual intelligence (capacity to think in images and pictures, to
visualize accurately and abstractly)
4. Bodily-kinesthetic intelligence (ability to control one’s body movements
and to handle objects skillfully)
5. Musical intelligences (ability to produce and appreciate rhythm, pitch
and timber)
6. Interpersonal intelligence (capacity to detect and respond appropriately
to the moods, motivations and desires of others)
7. Intrapersonal (capacity to be self-aware and in tune with inner feelings,
values, beliefs and thinking processes)
8. Naturalist intelligence (ability to recognize and categorize plants,
animals and other objects in nature)
9. Existential intelligence (sensitivity and capacity to tackle deep questions
about human existence such as, What is the meaning of life? Why do we
die? How did we get here?

What does the future look like? Is it a dark space where we’re suffering from varying degrees of techamphetamine or are we heading towards a Utopian fantasy of abundance and harmony?
Understanding that our basic human needs and wants barely change, we explore the future state of a range of topics; from our need for physical sustenance through to our age-long fascination of transcending the limitations of our biology.
Looking at the future from a human perspective, our potential for greatness is teetering on a fine line between darkness and hope. We’re banking on the latter.
5. Spatial This area deals with spatial judgment and the ability to visualize with the mind's eye. Linguistic This area has to do with words, spoken or written. People with high verbal-linguistic intelligence display a facility with words and languages. They are typically good at reading, writing, telling stories and memorizing words along with dates. Logical-mathematical This area has to do with logic, abstractions, reasoning and numbers. While it is often assumed that those with this intelligence naturally excel in mathematics, chess, computer programming and other logical or numerical activities. Bodily-kinesthetic The core elements of the bodily-kinesthetic intelligence are control of one's bodily motions and the capacity to handle objects skilfully . People who have bodily-kinesthetic intelligence are generally good at physical activities such as sports or dance.
6. Musical This area has to do with sensitivity to sounds, rhythms, tones, and music. People with a high musical intelligence normally have good pitch and may even have absolute pitch, and are able to sing, play musical instruments, and compose music. Interpersonal This area has to do with interaction with others. People who have this skill have the ability to cooperate in order to work as part of a group. They communicate effectively and empathize easily with others, and may be either leaders or followers. Intrapersonal This area has to do with introspective and self-reflective capacities Careers which suit those with this intelligence include philosophers, psychologists, theologians, lawyers, writers. Gardner claimed that the seven intelligences rarely operate independently. They are used at the same time and tend to complement each other as people develop skills or solve problems.
7. Conclusion While there may be some significant questions and issues around Howard Gardner's notion of multiple intelligences, it still has had utility in education. It has helped a significant number of educators to question their work and to encourage them to look beyond the narrow confines of the dominant discourses of skilling, curriculum, and testing. Howard Gardner's multiple intelligences theory has helped educators to reflect on their practice, and given them a basis to broaden their focus and to attend to what might assist people to live their lives well, then it has to be judged a useful addition
