El desarrollo de las inteligencias múltiples a la temprana edad

Abstract

The development of multiple intelligences begins at an early age, stimuli are required to activate the cognitive processes that facilitate learning, through education. Scientific studies have shown that providing children with innovative educational care that increases all their capacities or abilities to an adequate level that allows them to discover their talents and enhance them. Understanding that at the end of the 20th century the existence of several intelligences was evidenced, findings that allowed to demonstrate that in childhood the brain is malleable, a great neuronal plasticity predominates, which facilitates physiological changes, that is, the ability of the nervous system to change its structure and functioning as a reaction to stimuli from the social environment and education, these findings have generated a new vision on early childhood education by breaking down the myth that brain development was determined only by genetics and the existence of a only intelligence. Studies carried out by the neurophysiologist Marian Diamond and the scientist Howard Gardner in their theory of multiple intelligences, in 1983. In this sense, a great part of the challenge for initial education is to assume a paradigmatic change, taking into account a new approach on intelligences transcending its traditional conception.
