Multiple Intelligence Theory, developed by Howard Gardner in 1983, challenges the traditional view of intelligence as a single, fixed capacity. Instead, Gardner proposes that humans possess eight distinct types of intelligence, each representing different ways of processing information and solving problems. This theory has significant implications for education, suggesting that teaching and learning should address diverse intelligence profiles rather than focusing solely on linguistic and logical-mathematical abilities. By recognizing and nurturing all forms of intelligence, educators can create more inclusive, effective learning environments that honour the unique cognitive strengths of each student.

In the world of e-learning development, we often find ourselves stuck in a comfortable but limiting pattern. We meticulously gather content, organize it into logical sections, add some knowledge checks, finish with a quiz, and call it a day. But what...
