I really like Gardner’s MI theory in the sense that it acknowledges that no one child is the same and it provides a positive perspective towards children’s abilities and strengths from more than one intellectual aspect. I also agree with Gardner when he says that intelligence should never be measured by an IQ test. It is not surprising though to see that the MI theory has faced criticism from both psychologists and educators as it does not seem to be supported by accurate evidence. I do agree with

Howard Gardner viewed intelligence as ’the capacity to solve problems or to fashion products that are valued in one or more cultural setting’ (Gardner & Hatch‚ 1989). Howard Gardner initially formulated a list of seven intelligences. The first two have been typically valued in schools; the next three are usually associated with the arts; and the final two are what Howard Gardner called ’personal intelligences’.

He wrote his first paper outlining this theory in 1904 with Bernard Hart (Gregory‚ 1987). Spearman claimed that testing a persons abilites to complete tasks against expected outcomes could be measured and expressed in a mathemactical formula‚ that mathematical formula is now known as the Tetrad Equation

Robert Sternberg an American psychologist gave us the Triarchic Theory of Love. Wherein he shows us the different components of love‚ namely: intimacy‚ passion and decision/ commitment. This theory shows that love can be understood in terms of the three components‚ and they can be viewed as forming the triangle. Intimacy acts as the top vertex of the triangle‚ passion acts as the left point of the triangle and decision/commitment acts as the right point of the triangle. According to Sternberg‚ intimacy

Unit Four Individual Project Charles Spearman’s model of intelligence and Howard Gardner’s multiple intelligence theory are two of the most widely used theories of intelligence. In order to understand how similar the two theories are we must first understand their differences. These two men differed in opinion on how IQ and intelligence should be measured‚ and they differed in opinion on what made a person "smart". In order to examine these things they first had to understand the human brain and
