This presentation discusses Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences. It suggests that intelligence is difficult to define and measure, as it depends on culture, environment, and the current state of human understanding. Gardner believes humans learn in diverse ways and possess different kinds of intelligences, not just a single general intelligence measured by IQ tests. The human mind remains complex and only partially understood, with the potential to develop new abilities throughout life as the brain adapts and forms new connections.

- 2. What is Intelligence ?A person’s intelligence depends on where you are, the culture you are experiencing, and the time that you live in.Could it be a phenomena that we have yet to fully understand ?
- 3. How can we measure something we can not objectively determine ?Why is it important for us to understand intelligence ?
- 4. Humans have a “Need to Know” wired brain, it is our nature.
- 5. How do we learn about the world around us ?
- 6. Do we all learn the same way ?
- 7. Not at all.
- 8. Can IQ (intelligence quotient) be increased over time ?
- 9. Yes !
- 10. How much of the human mind do we understand ?
- 11. Is the mind like the oceans where we understand less than 10% of it ?. During early childhood development, studies have documented that a large section of the cortex remains uncommitted and available for other diverse uses during the growing child’s life.Researcher’s point to this unique trait observed in brain injured subjects.New brain modes or columns grow parallel to the existing connectors, creating channels allowing new processing abilities to develop.

- 21. Experiment
- 22. Its all in how you chew it…Humans are plastic, ever developing, adapting to new situations and evolving.
- 23. There are unlimited variations with numerous and still some undiscovered measurable intelligences.
- 24. H. Gardner believes that we need to continue to think outside the box.
- 25. How we think, how well and diversified we are in the process of thinking, depends on the mixture of all ways in which we learn about the world we live in.
- 26. Since Pangaea broke up during the last Ice Age event 20,000 years ago, homo sapiens had to leave the tropical zones .This chilling event forced us and our brain’s ability to increase problem solving , resulting in the expediential growth of our brain.
- 27. Survival of the fittest - Mankind will continue to develop the cognitive process until our species is extinct.
- 28. Between now and then, we strive to understand our evolving intellect.
- 29. The EndAny questions ?
