Howard Gardner's Multiple Intelligences

It's HP802 lecture 8. It's my second time in the lecture. Lol.

Anyway. The topic today is intelligence. I happened to be paying attention at this part where the prof was talking about Gardner's intelligences and about additional intelligences [I haven't heard of these before today]. This particular one caught my attention.

Existential Intelligence -- sensitivity and capacity to tackle deep questions about human existence, such as the meaning of life, why do we die, and how did we get here.

φιλοσοφία :)

I've never viewed it as something people could be good at; as an intelligence. I've always thought something like this was instinctive.

Cool.

If you have the time, check out Wei Long's blog and try the 'Who owns the fish' question :)

Triarchic theory of intelligence
1. Analytical
2. Creative
3. Practical

Triangular theory of love [love triangle lol]
1. Intimacy
2. Commitment
3. Passion

I gotta memorise all the names and dates of all the theories and stuff. Howww.
