There are lots of great resources online to learn about multiple intelligences, and especially many great websites. Multiple intelligences refers to a theory developed by Dr. Howard Gardner that describes the many forms of intelligence that help children to master their environment. Rather than defining “intelligence” as something that is measured on a test, Gardner describes 8 types of intelligences. These are musical, naturalistic, kinesthetic, spatial, interpersonal, intrapersonal, verbal, and logical/mathematical.We have put together a selection of some of the best websites on the Internet, with lots of information on multiple intelligences.
