School learning focuses on linguistic and logical skills through direct instruction, while learning outside of school emphasizes more diverse intelligences like musical, spatial, bodily-kinesthetic, and interpersonal skills through indirect experiences. Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences identifies 7 types of intelligence, with Daniel Goleman adding emotional intelligence as an 8th type. These multiple intelligences can help understand each learner's strengths and how they learn best, as students utilize different intelligences to learn, remember, and understand concepts.
