Theory of multiple inteligences

This theory was written in 1983 by Howard Gardner, professor at the Harvard University. For Howard intelligence it's not a unitary group that groups different specific capacities, but a network of autonomous sets interrelated among themselves. Just as there are many types of problems to solve, there are also many types of intelligences, which can be adapted and applied to solve them. We all stand out in a special way in some particular area, these innate aptitudes allow us to be better or worse in the performance of certain tasks. Howard has discovered nine different types of intelligences.

Visual-Spacial Intelligence.

Interpersonal Intelligence.

Existentialist Intelligence.

Verbal-Linguistic Intelligence.

Intrapersonal Intelligence.

Musical-Rhythmic Intelligence.

Logical-mathematical Intelligence.

Kinesthetic-Bodily Intelligence.

Naturalist Intelligence.

Ability to perceive the world and be able to create mental images from the visual experience. For example: photography, video, 3D creativity, etc.

Ability to use the body to learn and express ideas and feelings. It includes the mastery of physical abilities such as balance, strength, flexibility and speed. Example: Dance or gymnastics.

Skill for complex reasoning, cause-effect relationship, abstraction and problem solving. For example: a chess champion or scientists.

Ability to know how to use and respond to different musical elements (rhythm, timbre and tone). For example: the musicians.

Ability for scientific thinking, to observe nature, identify patterns and use it in a productive way. For example: scientists involved in naturalism and the defense of nature.
