Multiple Intelligences
Howard Gardner proposed the idea of Multiple Intelligences in his book Frames of Mind: Theory of Multiple of Intelligences in 1983. Although he laid out the details for each separate intelligence in great detail Gardner believed that each person had a "unique blend of all the intelligences" and that knowing one's intelligences can "empower learners" rather than restrict them.
