The theory of multiple-intelligences initiated by Howard Garner because of dissatisfaction with the education system, which introduced the intelligence quotient test system. The multiple-intelligences philosophy has changed the face of education today because it eliminates the distinction provided by schools to students. The multiple intelligences theory emphasizes that each is different and cannot be forced to be equal. This paper aims to discuss multiple-intelligences on student performance tests in 1st High School Tana Toraja. The author provides performance tests and questionnaire instruments to respondents. The results of the performance test and questionnaire instruments which had completed the performance tests and questionnaire instruments. The results showed that the students of 1st High School Tana Toraja were not optimal in using their intelligence to develop their potential. The reason is that students do not understand clearly the type of multiple-intelligence. Students are not interested in improving their type of multiple-intelligence and are more interested in developing other intelligence potentials.

What is intelligence? Which are the most important characteristics of it? Starting from these two questions that have a powerful impact over the researchers, Gardner fulfill to present a new meaning sense of the termen - intelligence, which continues to be discussed. During the article we will present some connections between the musical education systems of the 20th-21st centuries and the Theory of Multiple Intelligences. Even though some of them appeared before the theory, through his affirmations, Gardner manages to prove that the musical intelligence isn’t just a talent, it is in every human being. The study of the Theory Multiple Intelligence and the deepening of some of the well-known music education systems led to design and develop of some attractive and efficient music activities in school.

The theory of multiple intelligences has been embraced by the education and research communities worldwide. Substantial research has been conducted to understand multiple intelligences and learning. However, studies that examine how various types of technology affect across the board the different types of intelligences in learning is lacking. This chapter reviews the multiple intelligence (MI) theory and how emergent technologies can be used to support MI learning in education using a meta-analysis method. The results reveal that bodily-kinesthetic is most responsive to technology-based intervention compared to other types of intelligences and that immersive and visual images are effective in improving verbal linguistic and bodily-kinesthetic intelligences. Discussion of the findings are made along with their implications in educational practices. Suggestions for future research and practice are made in regard to multiple intelligence and emergent digital technology.

Language is normally associated with linguistic capabilities of individuals. In the theory of multiple intelligences, language is considered to be related primarily to linguistic intelligence. Using the theory of Multiple Intelligences as its starting point, this descriptive survey study investigated to what extent prospective English teachers’ high school education contributed to the development of linguistic intelligence which is essential for language teachers. The data were collected, using the Teele Inventory of Multiple Intelligences. The results showed that of the seven intelligences in the inventory, linguistic intelligence was not the most dominant intelligence of the participants. Variables such as the type of high school the students graduated from, the number of years of English learning, and gender did not have any effect on the linguistic intelligence scores of prospective English teachers either. The findings indicate that a change in the criteria of selection needs to be made in admitting prospective language teachers to universities.

This study aims to analyze the mathematics problem-solving process of high school students based on multiple intelligences. In research, multiple intelligence is divided into dominant linguistic intelligence, interpersonal and kinesthetic intelligence, dominant musical intelligence, logical-mathematical and naturalistic, existential, intrapersonal, and visual dominant intelligence. The type of research used in this research is descriptive exploratory, and the approach used is qualitative and quantitative approaches. Determination of research subjects was carried out using purposive sampling based on multiple intelligences, to obtain 3 high school students of class X as research subjects. The research instrument used was a multiple intelligence test and two problem-solving tests adopted from the American High School Math Exam (AHSME) Problems and the Provincial High School Mathematics National Science Olympiad questions. The data obtained were analyzed, utilizing data reduction. The research results show that students with multiple different intelligence bits have different ways of solving them, but there are also similarities in solving problems.

Choosing the right career is always a big issue, an important concern for everyone. To have a job, which is suitable for you, firstly you must look at yourself, called the self, and you should be aware of what the self is then you can promote the strength of your own self and avoid your weakness. To help discover more about yourself, during researching and studying, we come up with the idea that we would propose a career counseling system based on Howard Gardner's theory. The system uses the theory of multiple intelligences (Abenti & Daradoumis, 2020) which is combined with the K-nearest neighbors (KNN) (Tang, Ying; Tang, Ying; Hare, Ryan; Wang, Fei-Yue;, 2020) algorithm to assist people and to give out a suitable suggestion about career path for them. We use the results of the eight intelligences retrieved from the KNN classification algorithm to give users the consulting for their career paths. This system is built with a dataset based on 56 multiple-choice questions. These include 48 multiple choice questions based on Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences (Bravo, Leonardo Emiro Contreras; Molano, Jose Ignacio Rodriguez; Trujillo, Edwin Rivas, 2020), (businessballs, 2017) and 8 multiple choice questions which are the labels of the classifier. We divided the dataset into 8 subsets corresponding with 8 Intelligences defined by Howard Gardner with the collected dataset. In each subset, we build the KNN classifier model using KNN classification algorithm. This processing of 8 subsets come out with the results accuracy for the 8 Intelligences: linguistic intelligence (80.95%), logical-mathematical intelligence (82.14%), musical intelligence (96.43%), bodily-kinesthetic intelligence (82.14%), spatial-visual intelligence (82.14%), interpersonal intelligence (89.29%), intrapersonal intelligence (88.1%), existential intelligence (78.57%). With the outcome of 8 models, we have tested with 5 students and compared them to their actual intelligences. The comparison results tell us about the valuable potential in career path of the proposed counselling system, the advantages of this combination between Multiple Intelligence and KNN classifier.

Learning paradigm had been shifted to "student centered in which teacher or instructor role is more as facilitators who help students develop optimal potential. In order to be effective teacher needs to better understand all potentials of students. One form of the potential is multiple intelligences. To determine the learning achievement, the assessment should cover multiple intelligence-based learning outcomes which are performance tests. Variety of performance tests can be used to assess the actual performance or learning outcomes achieved by students.
