Multiple Intelligences

While currently reflecting on multiple intelligences lately(that sounds clever!!) I was intrigued to read about Howard Gardner and of how he proposed in his works of 1993 that people possess at least seven different forms of intelligence in a range of capacities.He believes that a persons ability to maintain knowledge depends on opportunities in society.Humans learn in a multitude of ways and is ever changing, an individual/pupil recieve information, reinforces and begins to understand using methods/ways suited to them.However it is also good practice in the classroom to move a pupil from a preferred learning style, providing them with the possibility of developing new learning strategies.

Seven different forms of multi intelligences
1. Linguistic
2. Mathematical
3. Spatial
4. Kinesthetic
5.Rhythmic
6. Interpersonal
7. Intrapersonal
