You Think You Are Smart? There Are 9 Types of Intelligence! 

Help us reach more parents and teachers to learn about psychology patreon.com/sprouts 🧡

Well, I don't think people fall into just one category of smart, I think they all have a different level of each type of smart.

"You Think You Are Dumb? There Are 9 Types Of Intelligence" would be a much more attractive title...

Not everybody is a natural at teaching......I believe this should be added.....bad teachers destroy a love for subjects...think of the terrible teachers we may have had at school / uni.....

Body smart = parkour ability

These intelligences are used to modify teaching methods and strategies because each learner has different needs and learning style. Great video!

I know I'm smart enough to know I'm not smart at all 👌

We tend to focus too much on just a few categories. There are people you wouldn't think of as smart, but who are brilliant in their area of expertise.

I think you just talked about the departments in a company PR , HR , Marketing ,Finance , Entertainment etc etc

I feel dumber after watching this video.

I like how they casually mention Mrs. Music Smart was part of the project because she wrote a song about a bridge. As if that's a totally normal thing that happens.

I disagree with the categories in this theory but do agree that people are smart in different areas. I believe that there should a technology "smart" category and some others could be added or removed.

I also doubt that solving math puzzles is the only type intelligence there is but unfortunately it is still the basis for a lot of college and job selections.

I think what this theory is ultimately trying to convey is the different ways people are able to understand and apply information. In essence, it's focusing on your learning styles and not just something you happen to be good at as this video may portray. And yes, we all can fall into more than one intelligence at varying points in our lives.

Each of these categories play a very unique part in whatever task/situation/state they are placed to/faced with. I love how they come together to create the "bridge project" in the story. If only our world recognizes our strengths and put it into something extraordinary then the world could become a better place. Because i strongly believe that everyone belongs. ❤️

Equivocating talent and skill with intelligence. An intelligent person who chooses to develop an apptitude in any of those areas will progress faster than a less intelligent person.

Today most of the skills mentioned here are used in different combinations.

That's a beautiful presentation - clear, crisp, concise and complete. No time waste.

Yes, definitely! There is a "teach smart". I know it exists because it is my greatest strength. You first have to be, naturally, very easily confused; then you have to make every conceivable mistake you can possibly make before you get anything right. After this, you will know, exactly, what order things must occur in; and you will be able to, effectively, explain just about any pitfall that can possibly come up in the learning/training process. You must have to first deal with tremendous weaknesses before you can atain this strength.

1:08 "he developed the passion for all living beings" but he´s roasting a chicken? hahaha that was funny!!!

quantifying, cathegorising and explaining is certaily helping understand a new idea. Einstein (I think) said: if you aren't able to explain a new concept simply enough, that means that you haven't understood it well enough. I am delighted to watch the way you combine visual with narration on explaining new (or new to me) concepts! In a real world I think each of us is operating on a combinations of all those qualities - we have learnt to develop one or more of them intro a skill or weakness depending on the opportunities we had in our childhood. Keep up the best work!

I think there is definitely truth to the multiple intelligence theory (even if it's not easy to test it), but some of the categories are starting to get too close to the personality category. For example, existential or pedagogical intelligence can easily be aspects of personality and partially aspects of the other types of intelligence mentioned. Interpersonal and intrapersonal can also to a large degree be associated with personality, though I like to think some aspects of them can be classed as a talent. For example, being good at understanding other people and delivering information in a convincing way would be interpersonal intelligence. And being good at accurately self-reflecting and establishing goals for oneself would be intrapersonal intelligence. Naturalist intelligence is not only about liking animals and nature (that would be personality). It's more about being able to understand other living things and having the ability to tend to them and care for them. IQ and EQ would have correlations with many of these. IQ would correlate with majority of these - logical, verbal, spatial, and possibly to some degree the others as well, since IQ is about how fast you learn new things. EQ, I believe, would mainly correlate with interpersonal, naturalist, and possibly intrapersonal intelligence.

informative and enjoyable journey to learn the 9 types of intelligence. Thank you!

I'm in love with your videos. As for the content: word and life intelligence are the basic lawyer skills.

Some people teach better than others so I assume so BUT every teacher has a style that could fit into the 9 intelligences so I think not. Are there subtypes of intelligence?

*reads the title of the video* no i don't think I'm smart, thats why i'm getting straight E's

Love the videos !

Keep up the good work!!

STARTED WATCHING VIDEOS OF THIS CHANNEL YESTERDAY AND ALREADY IN LOVE WITH THEM : )

Thank you for your lovely explanation. This video helps me lot to complete my assignment.

I strongly agree, as everyone has their own interests which later lead them to master that area with devotion and hence considered smart by others.

U certainly are teach smart ..

As a middle school Language Arts teacher, I would teach these types of intelligence in the beginning of the school year. There was a two fold purpose. First, to familiarize these young adults that everyone has different strengths and weaknesses. If you weren't a good reader/writer or mathematically inclined, your strengths and intelligence may be in another area. This would raise the self-esteem of those who thought success was predicated on English and math. They learned early that everyone can make contributions in this world. The second purpose was about knowing thyself and others. Every year, I accomplished my mission of making my students better readers/writers and speakers and listeners. It may have been called language arts but I looked it as communications class. The students learned the skills necessary to become better communicators using their strengths and/or types of intelligence best suited for the situation.

Wonderful pictures and stories..🎉 it makes me undertand the concept so easily...

Great work THank you

Awesome,gardener is absolutely correct

Teach smart I believe to be a hybrid of interpersonal skills and interpersonal skills. Being able and willing to learn the other person's mind and how will best learn and understanding your own mind enough to change to fit their learning style.

Aka theory of multiple intelligences that is taught to teachers to make there lesson plans apply to as a many students as possible. All people fall into multiple categories and tend to favor one or two.

I have for the most part believed that there are different types of intelligence. Good to see it in this form.

I think everyone is at least 3 of these

A perfect collaboration of the 9 types of intelligences. Well demonstrated! :)

If problems were solved like this in real life we'd be much more peaceful right now.

These are just nine arbitrary measures. Others could find 15, or group them into 4 or 5. I think risk assessment for example goes better with spatial skills ( type 1) than with the number cruncher!

He needs to add the chimera who shape shifts into each role as needed by their astute observation of both people and the task at hand. They are both teachers and students and constantly study the other kinds of people so as to increase the productivity of all parties.

love this video

I understood that Gardner first wrote about 7 intelligences originally. I know the Naturalist Intelligence was not included in my study of MIs. It is the learning Theory I support strongly as it encourages students to work smarter with what they have. I have no time for IQ tests as they can only score what’s within the four walls and corners of a test. ‘Intelligent’ people often lack self knowledge (intrapersonal intelligence) and knowledge of others (interpersonal intelligence) which often eaves then feeling isolated or different and unable to form meaningful relationships. It’s better to teach students, children and adult, to work smarter with what they have.

Blessed teachers who have pedagogical intelligence. They are been able to get SS understand all their teachings.

And just like everyone who saw this video, every person has each of these types of intelligence, just in different leves! Brain is like a muscle, and like muscles, you can train all of the intelligence or ones you want to improve!

This is a better way telling a types of Intelligence.

Maybe I don't have the right "intelligence" but I can't say I agree or disagree with this whole thing. This sort of compartmentalization seems kind of arbitrary. For example I find the "nature smart" guy to just be a nature loving environmentalist. That's more on a philosophical side of things imo. Or why not combine the people person with the speech giver? Is teaching separate or a combination of those things? I don't think us RU-vid commenters can really give a proper answer since we are not versed enough in psychology, philosophy, neuroscience, anthropology, etc (maybe a few are knowledgeable in a couple of areas but definitely not all). I can see this video to be both positive for people who know what they are and want to capitalize on it and at the same time negative to those unsure or those who are frustrated with what they got (usually the more feel type of "intelligence"). Still a nice video though and good food for thought :]

Agree on this, there may be more categories in this too.. throughout history some form of intelligence has been given more importance and rest neglected , like maths was more important in 1980 to 2005, now is the age of design intelligence

Nine forms of intelligence shows a way that we can be better at the intelligence we like and are not handicapped by our personalities.

Life smart is somewhat new , tell something more about that... Great job!

depends on what kind of teach smart there is.

These are just examples of people being good at various tasks. A measure of intelligence would be _capacity for learning, ability to change one's worldview with new argument and evidence,_ or _problem solving capacity_

After hard work comes intelligence. That's so purile for any individual. Prominent leaders are the admired individuals.

Yes. I really understand that those people are re-encountered to the power of Multiple Intelligence in the worlds. As for being new volunteered, I can followed the 9 types of Intelligence as followed as their people in the world around us. But I can pretty sure to work hard and study smart now.

Predominant: Intrapersonal, musical and naturalist. Yup me in a nut-shell 🤷🏽‍♀️

Thank u. For letting all us know that there lot more types of Intelligence. Well, Now seeing this video it does boost my motivation as I get know that I am a "Nature Smart".

I believe in these types of intelligence. One may be intrapersonally intelligent but interpersonally not skilled, or one might both be intrapersonally intelligent and interpersonally intelligent at the same time. I don't think it's wrong to identify types of intelligence but they may really interplay with other types such as EQ and IQ and others.

I had all these categories but thee should know that i am still studying it!

Yes. An intelligence type for each identity type. Can't go wrong.

and every person has all 9 types of intelligence in different amount some can have some kind of intelligence more than others but everyone is smart, find out in which field you are more productive, know yourself and absolutely you can achieve your mastery.

Hmmm. Maybe 9 "Inclinations". And if that, there are likely many more and there is likely a way to categorize aspects of each of them together to create totally different ones. I can say though that I see children and adults that have particular inclinations that drive how they learn and process information.

I think this is a subset of an unknown larger number of individual types of intelligence. Any core skill could be considered a type of intelligence. Like building intelligence or web development intelligence or fighting intelligence or organizational intelligence. Every person is like a video game character that has different varying levels of each. (even the as yet unnamed or unrecognized ones.)

Now that we know about the 9 intelligences. How do the rest of us find a way to exercise those intelligences?

These sound more like personality traits than types of intelligence, but I do believe that there are different types of intelligence.

Inspiring

Oh great there's 9 types of intelligence and I manage to be none of them

The conclusion of this video is every person will focus on some field of activity, becoming good at it if eager enough. Intelligence is and has always been a capability to collect, process and to use knowledge, while also capable of questioning things (i.e. forming new entireties of pre-existing material) and thinking independently. It's no use differentiating all the possible ways you may express your intelligence, while the ground phenomenon is always the same. Why people focus and get good on different things is a matter of interest, not intelligence. There are musical families, for instance, not because of some mystical genetic impact, but simply because music is present in the family and probably positively encouraged. Of course some people are better fit to do some activity, especially in sports and other physical activities, but mentally there is not so much differentiation in the end, if everyone would get similar premises from the start.

Well, Number smart found out that the bridge was overbudget. So convinces self smart to fire music, word and life smart. The bridge also used non green materials despite nature smart opposition to save cost.

I imagined having a grading system with this theory as its theoretical framework (In short, I hope students were evaluated, not by their overall intellect in all subjects, but by their category of intelligence)

I really think that he should add teach smart to the theory because knowing something and be able to effectively share and help someone understand it is a totally different skill. Compared to the 9, it is almost a blend of the 9.

I took this test and I found out that I am an existentialist.

good video

Music change = new season.

Every individual is unique ❤️❤️

Intelligence is much more than any one IQ number. There is verbal ability, executive function, emotional intelligence, spatial reasoning and other measures. I don't know that there is any strict categorization, but there are many facets to intelligence.

A complete human being is the one who possess all the nine types of intelligence....becoz in our day to day experience someway or the other we are putting one or the other type or types into use..

It is ok to be smart and it is not needed also.

I love this video. It's very uplifting. I conclude that we all carry all 9 forms of intelligence in different percentages. Have a good day!

I agree that there is a Teach Smart. There are many teachers who, the more strategies they use to teach, they can´t get their students understand the knowledge, use it in context, or enjoy it.It means those teachers don´t have Teach Smart.

channel admin is not added their opinion he just tells the research as it with visual effect and to the point he must be hard worker.

Yes, some people are well at teaching and that's my special besides the other one except the musical and natural intelligence.

“Please be teach smart” that a trap statement, if I argue successfully for IQ/EQ then I’m being pedagogical in this context.

If only I knew which one pertains to me!

I think it's best to state that Gardiner has a firm grasp on how overlapping ideas of intelligence, such as creativity, EQ and IQ can be practically shown in life in the 10 smarts shown. People who are musically smart, mathematically smart and visually smart are actually all able to draw upon abstract reasoning in IQ tests, which is the most accurately assessed aspect of IQ. Like it is the type of intelligence test we would be able to assess in animals and even aliens. Life smart, word smart and people smart would all rely on verbal comprehension, EQ and creativity, with a lot of influence coming from the popularity of their views influencing their success, including their personality type, particularly levels of neuroticism and extraversion. People who are nature smart, body smart and intrapersonally smart all rely on a multitude of spatial problem solving, relationship building and cultivating, including diversifying all other types of intelligence and cognitive traits that are needed in their life. Pedagogical smarts is useful in all fields and actually makes you smarter overall as the saying "learn one, do one, teach one" is universally applicable across every field and uses pretty much all smarts in order to get there. So the multiple intelligences theory is useful in understanding how intelligence is used and manifested in real life pragmatically, but is best used in conjunction with personality theory, emotional intelligence and general intelligence theory. In my opinion, the beauty of Gardiner's work is that it makes the concept of intelligence pragmatic and a lot less theoretical. It addresses how intelligence is demonstrated in non-academic and academic persons and encourages people to embrace creativity, perspective and a variety of activities, which actually assists in keeping yourself healthy, happy and prosperous!

Can you name the software you've used?

I think the abilioty to teach is definitely a kind of smart

*Logic and Reasoning *Expression and Creativity *Empathy and Understanding *Communication *Dexterity *Transference These are the facets of intelligence we display, each on a spectrum within our psyche, some traits are more developed in individuals than other traits. Some come naturally others as skills we develop. The greatest of this set of intelligence types is Transference, this is the ability to transfer skills and knowledge from one aspect of the intelligence field to others, for example the use of mathematics in art or the ability to put words together into a musical form, the list can certainly be expanded. We all display all of these intellectual qualities and through nurturing or nature we develop some, all or one of these, the others are there, but dormant... like people who sing really well in the shower, but can't perform on stage.... practice is what make us better at our intelligence sets, not withstanding that individuals will have natural phobias or may be cognitively or socially as well as psychologically disadvantaged positively or negatively in one , some or all the traits; e.g. Autism, Cerebral palsy, sociopaths (who are more often than not, good at all the sets)

very helpful..But i wonder what if a person does not fall in even single category out of these?

And then it was discovered that high measurable g highly correlates to all of Gardner's "types" of "intelligence."

So what happens when you look at your life and its not visualised in the video

We've learned this recently from our E.S.P class....

Hello, I am a convinced believer that one type of intelligence out of nine is born more dominant, I call it human potential. It must be recognized and then developed. This is where the formula for happiness lies.

He had the correct idea

What would one or more of SMARTS combine to form in the video ?

Nice theory and explanation in this video. But In my opinion i think there's more than 9 intelligent type.

There's definitely one for sports or athleticism, I always have been good at any sports with little to none practice but I remember this kid at school that in any sport any physical activity even if it was something that nobody hadn't tried before he could become an expert in a couple of days and make it look easy.. time pass by and I got to knew he's family, humble family he's dad was very old so I couldn't tell if he got it from he's dad side but from he's sister to he's little brother all athletic. Until this day, they are over 30 and still all of them are athletic and compete in multiple sports..

I wanna know more about the existential fellow
