{{Main|Theory of multiple intelligences}}
The existence of multiple intelligences is proposed by psychologist [[Howard Gardner]], who suggests that different kinds of intelligence exists in human beings.<ref>Allen, I. E., J. Seaman, et al. (2007). ''Blending In: The Extent and Promise of Blended Education in the United States''. Needham, M.A., The Sloan Consortium.</ref> It is a theory that has been fashionable in [[continuous professional development]] (CPD) training courses for teachers. However, the theory of multiple intelligences is often cited as an example of [[pseudoscience]] because it lacks empirical evidence or [[falsifiability]].<ref name="Howard-Jones2010">{{cite book |last=Howard-Jones |first=Paul |title=Introducing Neuroeducational Research: Neuroscience, Education and the Brain from Contexts to Practice |year=2010 |publisher=Taylor & Francis |isbn=978-0-415-47200-5 |page=35}}</ref><ref name="Gottfredson2012">{{cite journal |last=Gottfredson |first=Linda |title=Intelligence: Instant Expert 13 |url=https://www.newscientist.com/data/doc/article/dn19554/instant_expert_13_-_intelligence.pdf |journal=New Scientist |volume=211 |issue=2819 |pages=i–viii (a pullout)}}</ref>
