 Dr. Gardner is a professor of Education and co- director of Project Zero at the Harvard Graduate School of Education.  Gardner is best known in educational circles for his theory of multiple intelligences, a critique of the notion that there exists but a single human intelligence that can be assessed by standard psychometric instruments.

 "The standard view of intelligence is that intelligence is something you are born with; you only have a certain amount of it; you cannot do much about how much of that intelligence you have; and tests exist that tell you how smart you are."

“intelligence is the ability to solve the problems, or to create products, that are valued within one or more cultural settings.”
