Types of Intelligence

​

People’s bodies come in all shapes and sizes:

1. tall or short,

2. thin or heavy,

3. lean or muscular.

​

Some bodies are more suited to certain types of work than others. Some are more adept at physically demanding manual labor, others more matched to sedentary office work. Even among athletic bodies, some, for example, are more capable of weightlifting and others to long-distance running.

​

So, too, with people’s intelligence. Bodies come in different shapes and sizes, and the same is true of their minds:

1. Some are highly intelligent, and others less so.

2. Some excel in mathematics.

3. Others are more geared toward the written word.

4. Others to the spoken word.

5. And still others in music or art.

​

None are better or worse than any other. None are right, and none are wrong. They are simply different.

So, why focus on only one measure of intelligence, the Intelligence Quotient (IQ)?

​

If we are willing to accept that some body types are better at certain sports or physical activities than others, why do we expect all people’s minds to be equally adept at all intellectual tasks?

​

This workshop will:

1. Introduce different Types of Intelligence

2. Explain each type's strengths.

3. Discuss possible careers and professions to which people with each type may gravitate.

4. Investigate whether people can excel in only one type of intelligence or shine in multiple types of intelligence.
