And each of these learning styles was adapted from Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences.

So basically he developed this idea back in the 80s to essentially argue that IQ is just one specific type of intelligence.

It's a general intelligence, but real intelligence comes in many different forms.

There's many different understandings and your natural intelligence

inclination for a specific form is what's going to help you excel in a certain area basically people are smart at different things people are good at different things but these forms are visual or spatial so some people have a visual spatial learning type that's a preference for things laid out in maps laid out in graphs laid out in charts

Auditory, like an auditory learning style.

So you like to absorb knowledge through sound, song, rhythm, beat, kinesthetic, learning through movement, having a, I guess, a natural intelligence for how your body moves and what it does in space and what it can do.

Verbal, the use of speech and speaking concepts or ideas aloud.

This is my learning style.

Obviously, no surprise.

I run a podcast, but another one is logical.

There are people who really enjoy learning or absorbing information by laying them down.

in a very mathematical and logical format.

Interpersonal and intrapersonal, two different ones.

Interpersonal, learning through collaboration, conversation, connection.

Intrapersonal, learning through reflection, alone time, deep devotion, solitude.

And then finally, naturalistic, learning through the world by seeing patterns, by connecting things to one's surroundings.

Hopefully you got all those, but there's eight.

And the theory goes that this also aligns not just to how you best process information, but also what job might suit you best.

We don't have time to get into that because that theory is very wild and wacky.
