Multiple intelligence is the ___________that the intelligence is not one unitary thing,
but ___________it can be a number of ___________things, it is pluralist, so there are
many different ___________of being smart.

Most people ___________ of intelligence as something that you ___________ a lot


of or little of, and you had a certain amount and it was, it is a sort of ___________ by
quickness speed, it is a sort of mental capacity, computing power and that you could
___________ that and you could ___________ it to a number of domains. What
Howard work did, is he ___________ this concept and he ___________ it apart
based on research from neuroscience and cognition into the ways that people
___________ be intelligent, for example: mathematical logical visual, verbal
intelligence, spatial intelligence, linguistic, interpersonal, intrapersonal looking in. So
different forms of intelligences.

You ___________, a dancer will be more ___________ to have bodily kinesthetic


intelligence but ___________ also have incredible intra personal personal
intelligence, sort of knowing their feelings and emotions and how to ___________
those out.
The ramifications are broad: We ___________ it in business, we see it in school, we
see people ___________ when they are looking to tackle a problem, they might think
:
Who is best suited to solve this problem?
How do we ___________ people to build upon their propensities?
The areas where they are particularly intelligent and ___________ those propensities
to remediate areas where it is harder for them, for example: If I’m particularly
___________ inwards but I ___________ to be able to focus outward for a
presentation. I might use those inward skills about emotions about connecting with
the audience, to think about how to be more social in my intelligence and
___________ out. So the combination together can be sort of powerful.
