Multiple-intelligence was suggested by Dr. Howard Gardener (1981), consisting of at least 8 different intelligences:

1. Linguistics Intelligence ("word smart")

2. Logical-mathematical Intelligence ("number/ reasoning smart")

3. Spatial Intelligence ("picture smart")

4. Musical Intelligence ("music Smart")

5. Bodily-kinesthetic Intelligence ("body smart")

6. Interpersonal Intelligence ("people smart")

7. Intrapersonal Intelligence ("self smart")

8. Naturalist Intelligence ("nature smart")
