What are multiple intelligences?

Gardner's Multiple Intelligences is based on the theory that Intelligence is based on more than a score in an IQ test. Howard Gardner said that there were eight kinds of intelligences.

words (linguistic intelligence) numbers or logic (logical-mathematical intelligence) pictures (spatial intelligence) music (musical intelligence) self-reflection (intrapersonal intelligence) a physical experience (bodily-kinesthetic intelligence) a social experience (interpersonal intelligence), and/or an experience in the natural world. (naturalist intelligence) (Dr Thomas Armstrong http://www.thomasarmstrong.com/multiple_intelligences.htm)
