The theory of multiple intelligences

Abstract

The theory of multiple intelligence (TIM) was an innovative event in human personal development and in the assessment of its potential. It was presented in 1983 by Dr. Howard Gardner, a professor at Harvard University, who questioned the limited notion of intelligence based on IQ (intelligent quotient). As a result, the great professor and researcher suggested 7 different exhaustive types of intelligence: verbal/linguistic, logical-mathematical, spatial, kinaesthetic, musical, intra-personal, and interpersonal.
