Abstract
The Theory of the Multiple Intelligences was dreamt up by the North American psychologist Howard Gardner as I counterweigh the paradigm of an only intelligence. Gardner proposed that the human life calls for the development of several types of intelligence. So then, Gardner does not go into contradiction with the scientific definition of the intelligence like the capability to solve problems, or elaborating valuable goods. Keywords: Multiple Intelligences, Intelligence.
Introduction
The theory of the multiple intelligences is a model proposed by Howard Gardner in which intelligence is not something individual that groups different specific capacities with different level of generality, rather he is a set of multiple, different and independent intelligences. Gardner defines the intelligence as the capability to solve problems or elaborating products that be valuable in one or plus cultures. In the first place, Gardner enlarges the field so that it is the intelligence and recognizes what right now you were knowing : That the academic success is not all it. You are not enough to the hour to become unwrapped in the daily life with having a great academic file. A good example of this idea is observed in people than, in spite of obtaining excellent academic grades, they present important problems to relate with someone else or for to manage another facets of his life. Gardner and his collaborators would be able to affirm that Stephen Hawking does not possess a bigger intelligence that I Read Messi, rather each one of them has developed a kind of different intelligence.

Types of Multiple Intelligences
The people of great intellectual capacity are but ineffectual person to elect his friends well or on the contrary, the less brilliant people at the high school that succeeds in the world of business or in his private life are. For it, it is said that to for to succeed in business, or in sports, you require to be intelligent, but a kind of different intelligence is utilized at each field. In other words: Einstein is not further neither less intelligent than Michael Jordan, simply his intelligences belong to different fields. It is intelligence but different. Also, Gardner defines the intelligence as a capability. Until very recently you considered the intelligence somewhat innate and unmovable, that each person had of permanent form, one was born intelligent or not, and nothing on it could not do education. Howard Gardner's investigation has achieved to identify and defining to eight different types of intelligence. We are going to know of more detailed way each of the intelligences proposed by the Theory of Gardner's Multiple Intelligences from now on. Linguistic Intelligence
Implicated area of the brain: Temporary lobe and frontal left-hand. The capability to dominate the language and to be able to communicate us with the other ones is transverse to all the cultures. We learn how to use the first language to be able to communicate us of efficacious way from children. The linguistic intelligence did not sole you make reference to the ability for the oral communication, but to another forms to get in touch like th e writing, the gestualidad, etc. That better they dominate this capability to communicate they have a linguistic superior intelligence. Professions which you highlight this type of intelligence in would be able to be political, writers, poets, journalists Logical Mathematical Intelligence
Implicated area of the brain: Left-hand parietal lobe, straight hemisphere. During decades, the logical mathematical intelligence was considered the unprocessed intelligence. The principal axis of the concept of intelligence supposed, and a person was used like tariff list to detect how intelligent era. As his own name suggests, this type of intelligence links up to the capability for the logical reasoning and the problem solving mathematical. The rapidity to solve this type of problems is the indicator that determines how much logical mathematical intelligence it is had.

Celebrate them ( IQ ) they base test of IQ in this type of intelligence and, in minor measure, in the linguistic intelligence. The scientists, economists, academicians, engineers and mathematicians use to stand out at this classroom of intelligence. Space Intelligence
Implicated area of the brain: The straight hemisphere's posterior regions The ability to be able to observe the world and the objects from different perspectives is related to this type of intelligence, in the one that the chess players and the professionals of the visual arts highlight ( painters, designers, sculptors ). The people that stand out in this type of intelligence use to have capabilities that they allow them to dream up mental imagery, to draw and to detect details, in addition to a personal sense for esthetics. We found painters, photographers, designers, publicists, architects, designers in this intelligence Musical Intelligence
Implicated area of the brain: Temporary straight lobe. Music is an universal art. All cultures have some type of music, more or less elaborated, which takes Gardner and its collaborators to understand that a musical latent intelligence in everybody exists . The brain's some zones execute shows linked with interpretation and composition of music. Just like everybody else type of intelligence, you can train and getting perfect. You are not necessary that the more aces at this classroom of intelligence are those capable to touch instruments, to read and to compose pieces of music without difficulty. Corporal Intelligence and Cinestetica
Implicated area of the brain: Cerebellum, basal ganglions and driving bark The corporal and driving abilities that are required to drive tools or for to express certain emotions represent an essential aspect in the development of all the cultures of history. The ability to use tools is considered corporal intelligence cinestésica. On the other hand, there is one followed of more intuitive capabilities like the use of the corporal intelligence to express intervening sentiments the body.

They are diamonds in this type of intelligence dancing, actors, sportsmen specially, and to surgeons and plastic creators, because all of them have to use of rational way their physical abilities. Intrapersonal Intelligence
Implicated area of the brain: Frontal lobes and parietal bones, system límbico. Intelligence intrapersonal refers that intelligence that you authorize us to understand and to control the internal space of oneself. The people that highlight in intelligence intrapersonal are able to agree to his sentiments and emotions and to reflect on these. This intelligence also allows delving into his introspection and understanding the reasons which on e is for of the way that it is. Interpersonal intelligence
Implicated area of the brain: Frontal lobes, temporary lobe ( specially of the straight hemisphere ), system límbico. The interpersonal intelligence authorizes someone else to us to be able to notice things of them beyond what our senses manage to gain. It has to do with an intelligence that it enables interpreting words or facial expressions, or objectives and goals out of every discourse. Beyond the contínuum Introversion Extraversión, the interpersonal intelligence evaluates the capability for empatizar with them besides people. A very valuable intelligence is the people that they work with numerous groups. His ability to detect and to understand circumstances and problems of the other ones it proves to be more small change i f ( and you develop ) the interpersonal intelligence is possessed. The professors, psychologists, therapists, lawyers and pedagogues are profiles that they use to punctuate very high in this type of intelligence described in the Theory of the Multiple Intelligences. Naturalistic intelligence
Implicated area of the brain: Center of the left-hand hemispheres and right The naturalistic intelligence allows detecting, telling apart and categorizing the aspects linked to nature, like for example the animal sorts and vegetables or phenomena related with the climate, the geography or acts of God. This classroom of intelligence was added at a later time on the original study on Gardner's Multiple Intelligences, concretely in the year 1995. Gardner considered necessary to include this category to have to do with an one

belonging to the essential intelligences for the human being's survival ( or any other sort ) and that has resulted in evolution. In context
Gardner affirms that everybody are the owner of an one belonging to the eight classrooms of intelligence, although each one highlights more in some eachly than in another one, no being anyone of the eight more important or valuable than them besides. Generally, great part requires having self-control theirs to face life, independently of the profession that it be exercised. In the last analysis, they specify the majority of works of the use of the majority of types of intelligence. The education that is taught at the classrooms is engaged in offering contentses and focused procedures to evaluate the two first types of intelligence: Linguistics and logician mathematical. Nevertheless, this proves to be totally insufficient in the project to educate the pupils in plenitude of its potentialities. The need of a change in the educational paradigm was carried to debate thanks to the Theory of the Multiple Intelligences that Howard Gardner proposed.
