Gardner theory

Explanation:

Gardner theory was the theory of multiple intelligence which was developed by Dr. Howard Gardner in 1983, he was of the opinion that the conventional concept of intelligence was too narrow and restrictive and that measures of IQ often miss out on other intelligence (talents) that an individual may possess and proposes eight different intelligence to account for a broader range of human potential in children and adults.

This theory theorizes that people do not have just one intellectual capacity, but have many kinds of intelligence, including musical, interpersonal, spatial-visual, and linguistic intelligence and Gardner theory had had a profound impact on thinking and practice in education.
