The document discusses Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences, which proposes that humans possess nine different types of intelligence. It provides descriptions of Gardner's original eight multiple intelligences - linguistic, logical-mathematical, musical, bodily-kinesthetic, visual-spatial, naturalist, interpersonal, and intrapersonal. Later, Gardner suggested adding an ninth intelligence - existential intelligence. The document encourages activities to help learners identify their own multiple intelligences.

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?

Theory of Multiple Intelligences Suggested by Howard GardnerAlmog Ramrajkar
This presentation explains the 'Theory of Multiple Intelligences" by Howard Gardner the legendary professor of psychology at Harvard University. He suggested 8 abilities to fit his criteria - musical - rhythmic, visual - spatial, verbal - linguistic, logical - mathematical, bodily - kinesthetic, interpersonal, intrapersonal, naturalistic and existential.
Please take your time and enjoy this colourful presentation and hopefully you will also learn something :)

Different psychologists have proposed competing theories of intelligence over the years. These theories have proven to be useful in our understanding the brain.
As we learn more and more about the way the brain works, we’re coming to understand that traditional methods of measuring intelligence no longer apply — at least not the way they used to
2. Multiple Intelligences
Today we will focus on a theory called
Multiple Intelligences.
Background Information
The Multiple Intelligences Theory was
created by the American developmental
psychologist, Howard Gardner.
The Theory
Gardner’s theory proposes that humans
possess nine different intelligences.
4. What is Intelligence?
There are many different ideas on
what makes up intelligence.
Gardner believes that intelligence is…
• The ability to create a product or provide
a service that is valued in a culture
• A set of skills that allow us to solve
problems in life
• A potential for finding, gathering and
creating solutions to challenges
7. Look out!
Existential Intelligence
When Gardner first published
his theory there were only
eight multiple intelligences.
This was seen in the pie
chart. However, later on
Gardner suggested that a
ninth intelligence should be
added to the Multiple
Intelligences Theory. This
ninth intelligence is…
9. Logical/Mathematical Intelligence
The ability to understand and follow
logical systems, like a scientist, or to
manipulate numbers, quantities, and
operations, like a mathematician.
Logic Smart
10. Musical/Rhythmic Intelligence
The ability to think in music; to be able
to hear patterns, recognize them, and
perhaps manipulate them. People with
strong musical intelligence have music
in their head most of the time!
Music Smart
11. Bodily/Kinesthetic Intelligence
The capacity to use your whole body
or parts of your body to solve a
problem, make something, or provide a
service. Many kinesthetic learners are
physically active.
Body Smart
13. Naturalist Intelligence
The ability to appreciate, recognize and
categorize plants, animals and other
objects in nature (rocks, lakes, etc.).
Nature Smart
14. Intrapersonal Intelligence
Being able to understand yourself.
Intrapersonal thinkers are very good at
self-reflection. They know who they
are, what they can do, when they need
help, how they react to situations and
which things to avoid.
Self Smart
15. Interpersonal Intelligence
People Smart
The ability to understand other people
and interact with them. It's an ability we
all need, but is especially important for
teachers, clinicians, salespersons, or
politicians.
