Multiple intelligences: fashionable or foundational?

Abstract

Gardner's theory of Multiple Intelligences (MI) has been well received by many educators. Most of the literature on MI, however, concentrates on the primary school sector. This article considers the implications of MI for both primary and secondary sectors and suggests why the latter has been less responsive.
