## Definition
**Howard Gardner** is a developmental psychologist known for the theory of multiple intelligences and for research on cognition, creativity, education and human development.
## Corpus Context
Gardner complicates any ontology that treats intelligence as a single scalar capacity. His work helps separate kinds of competence, cultural recognition and educational development from a unitary machine benchmark.
## Team Leela Context
He appears in [[Team Leela]] as an intellectual intersection, not as an official member of a coordinated group.
