Abstract

Thisresearchworkis qualitative, quantitative descriptive exploratory level to. We worked with a stratified sample of nineteen students in the sixth year of basic education, the instruments used were two works by Prieto and Ballester (2003) (based onGomisSelva, 2007) and a test of Multiple Intelligences of Howard Gardner adapted by Professor Angela Rosa Hernandez and readapted by Luis Carpio, who evaluate the degree of development of Multiple Intelligences. The Central goal that guides this research was to assess the type and level of development of Multiple Intelligences at sixth year students of basic education, on the basis of the theoretical framework by Howard Gardner of Multiple Intelligences, as well as contributions from otherauthors. For Gardner (2006) Intelligence is "the ability to solve problems or create products that are valued in one or more cultural settings." What characteristic of his theory is to recognize the existence of eight different and independent intelligences, which can interact and reciprocally. These are musical, kinesthetic, linguistic, logical-mathematical, spatial, interpersonal, intrapersonal, and naturalistic. In theresultsit is evident that the higher intelligences in the study group are: the Intrapersonal jurisdiction, logical-mathematical, naturalistic, while those who had a lower level were the musical and interpersonal.
