• Resumen

  • This article investigates the use of Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences in hospitality education. Traditional teaching often focuses on the logical-mathematical and verbal-linguistic intelligences of students and neglects other forms, including visual-spatial, musical, bodily-kinesthetic, interpersonal, intrapersonal, and naturalist, and intelligences, that Gardener includes in his pluralistic view of how people learn. The multiple intelligences are described and their possible uses to enhance hospitality instruction are discussed
