Introduction
Concept introduced by Howard Gardner, an educational psychologist at Harvard University.
Intelligence is defined as the ability to solve problems or create value-accepted items in one or more cultural contexts and is considered a 'developable ability.'
According to Gardner, individuals possess not one, but eight independent intelligences, and each person has different areas of developed intelligence.
Gardner's theory suggests that by maximizing strengths and compensating for weaknesses, individuals can succeed.
