HOWARD GARDNER'S THEORY OF MULTIPLE INTELLIGENCES: A COMPREHENSIVE PERSPECTIVE

Abstract

In this study examines Howard Gardner’s the theory of multiple intelligences.  The theory of multiple intelligences (MI) posits that human intelligence is not a single general ability but comprises various distinct modalities, such as linguistic, logical-mathematical, musical, and spatial intelligences. Introduced in Howard Garner’s book Frames of Mind: The Theory of Multiple Intelligences (1983), this framework has gained popularity among educators who accordingly develop varied teaching strategies purported to cater to different student strengths. In this study is explained conceptually Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences.  In this context has been conducted a literature review.
