This is called the theory of Multiple
Intelligences

• Theres more to intelligence than meets the eye.
  The latest research on the brain means that we
  are beginning to realise that intelligence is not
  just something you have or dont have, but is
  actually a broad range of different types,
  skills, abilities and talents.

Humans have eight areas in which they show
differing degrees of intelligence

• Interpersonal intelligence
• Intrapersonal intelligence
• Linguistic (Verbal) intelligence
• Mathematical intelligence
• Visual and spatial intelligence
• Kinaesthetic (Physical) intelligence
• Musical intelligence
• Naturalistic intelligence

each of the intelligences. They will suggest
different revision methods that will suit
different intelligences. However to learn well
you should try a mixture of techniques.

• There are some activities to do along the way. If
