1 Multiple Intelligences
It’s not whether you’re intelligent; it’s HOW you’re intelligent.

2 Multiple Intelligences Quiz
On a sheet of paper, write out the words “Section 1,” “Section 2,” etc. through “Section 9.” Make sure to leave a line or two below each section title. Using the Multiple Intelligences Inventory, mark a tally for each statement in each section that applies to you. Once you’ve gone through each section, count up the number of tallies you have for each section and write it next to the section number. Put a star (*) next to your top 3 sections and put a pound sign (#) next to your bottom 3 sections.

Intelligence can be learned throughout life (remember, growth mindset?) Everyone is intelligent in at least seven different ways and can develop each aspect of intelligence to an average level of competency Intelligence is, then, the ability to solve problems or fashion products that are valuable in one or more cultural setting.
