According to Howard Gardner’s theory of multiple intelligences, which of the following is not included as a specific type of intelligence? Correct Answer Creative intelligence

There are many theories of intelligence. Howard Gardner proposed a theory of multiple intelligence. Gardner defines intelligence as "a biopsychological potential to process information that can be activated in a cultural setting to solve problems or create products that are of value in a culture.

Key Points The theory of Multiple Intelligence consists of eight different kinds of intelligence-

• Visual-spatial: Learners think about physical space and their surrounding environments.

  • For example puzzles, maps, charts, videos, etc. In this class, students use a graphic organizer to map out the differences between facts and opinions.

• Bodily Kinaesthetic: Learners use the body effectively and have body awareness. In this class, students are using their bodies to spell new words.

  • For example movement, role-playing, hands-on learning, and using real objects.

• Musical:  Learners understand and are sensitive to rhythm and sound.
  • For example, music, speaking rhythmically, music, instruments, etc.
• Interpersonal Intelligence- In Interpersonal Intelligence, Learners understand people’s moods and intentions.
  • Example: interacting with others, group activities, writing, etc.
• Intrapersonal: Learners understand themselves and their own goals.
  •  For Example independent learning, creative materials, and private time.
• Linguistic: Learners understand words effectively.
  •  For Example, word games, reading, stories/poetry
• Logic mathematical: Learners understand the reasoning and calculating.
  • For Example, logic games and puzzles, mysteries, experiments, etc
• Naturalistic:  Learners can identify plants, animals, etc.
  • For example, animals, nature, being outside, gardening, etc.
• So we can say that Creative intelligence is not a part of Garder's  multiple intelligence theory
• Hence, Option (4) is the correct answer.

Hint

• Creative intelligence is marked by inventing or imagining a solution to a problem or situation, Creative Intelligence is given by Robert Stenberg.
