Professor Howard Gardner is at it again, never ceasing to create innovative approaches to traditional conceptions of thinking and learning. His groundbreaking theory of multiple intelligences spawned a re-evaluation of school curricula, highlighting the importance of including the arts and culture in mainstream learning.

Recently, at the annual conference of the National Association of Laboratory Schools (NALS), co-hosted by the Bank Street College School for Children and The School at Columbia University, Gardner[base ']s keynote included the framework for his upcoming book, Five Minds for the Future. [base "]It[base ']s in part an essay in psychology and education, but it[base ']s also a programmatic book in the sense that I think these are the five minds we need to develop in the future,[per thou] Gardner explained. The book takes into account the intellectual thirst of the individual as well as the role of a person within the framework of society and humanity.
