The Multiple Intelligences

"In interpretative views and assessed intelligences, there are a lot of things that we have to take into account as far as Multiple Intelligences are concerned.  It is true that the existence of individual differences is a fact. With billions of people in this universe, still no two individuals are alike. With these differences, we are going to focus on the study of intelligence. Intelligence cannot be observed directly. Many psychologists introduced theories of intelligence. In 1983, Dr. Howard Gardner of Harvard University introduced the theories of multiple intelligences which are considered unique in many ways and diverse with pluralistic views.”

To elaborate more about the multiple intelligences, judgments and assessments ought to be laid down in a specific time frame to gauge the veracity of one’s desired talent and one’s well-polished smartness.
