MULTIPLE INTELLIGENCE

Neurons have the major control of our intelligence development.. Dermatoglyphics Analysis can help us to discover the development of our neurons & understand our innate strength and weakness.. Even Albert Einstein has used only 30% of his innate intelligence,, the rest is developing intelligence.. Now,, the question is,, how can parents & educators help children to develop their intelligence??

Before Dr.. Howard Gardner has proposed the theory of Multiple Intelligence in his book Frames of Mind in 1983.. The intelligence development of children completely depended on the expectations of their parents & educators.. In other words,, the expectations of their parents & teachers has a huge impact on how well the children perform.. In 1970's,, teachers are requested to show positive attitude towards all students in western countries.. These resolutions have encouraged a lot of students.. There was,, however a few theories have developed about intelligence..

Dr.. Gardner's Frames of Mind around Multiple Intelligence has had a profound impact on thinking & practice in education.. His theory suggests that there are a number of distinct forms of intelligence that each individual possesses in varying degrees.. Dr.. Gardner points out that the different intelligences represent not only different content domains but also learning modalities.. His further implication of the theory is,, assessment of abilities should measure all forms of intelligence..

In Dr.. Gardner's theory,, he also stresses the importance of :
1. Ability of problem solving..
2. Cultural Influence..
         AND
3. Ability to look forward to new challenges..
