Howard Gardner
Developmental Psychologist, Harvard Graduate School of Education
關於
Howard Gardner (b. 1943) is an American developmental psychologist best known for the theory of multiple intelligences, introduced in his 1983 book Frames of Mind. Against the idea of a single general intelligence measured by IQ, he argued that the mind comprises several relatively independent capacities — linguistic, logical-mathematical, musical, spatial, bodily-kinesthetic, interpersonal, intrapersonal, and naturalistic. The theory reshaped debates in education even as psychometricians contested its empirical basis. He is the Hobbs Research Professor of Cognition and Education at Harvard, where he has taught since the 1980s and retired from classroom teaching in 2019.
