What defines Multiple Intelligences?
Howard Gardner, a Harvard professor, wrote a book called “Frames of Mind.” In it, he argued for the replacement of standard view of intelligence by “multiple intelligence.” In short, IQ alone shouldn’t determine intelligence, according to Gardner. Other things like a person’s Auditory Linguistic, Musical, or Kinesthetic etc. abilities should be considered “intelligence” as well. He argued that intelligence is displayed in all different areas and he proposed 7 different Multiple Intelligences, such as the categories above.
