A Tribute for Howard Gardner's Retirement

Howard Gardner is officially retiring from his teaching duties at the Harvard Graduate School of Education the end of the 2018-2019 academic year, although he will continue to be a research professor and carry on with his current projects.

To mark the occasion, HGSE has released a tribute in his honor by two of his colleagues. In a short essay, Mindy Kornhaber, a former student of Gardner's, provides an overview of Howard's accomplishments and contributions, concluding that "Howard’s legacy of extraordinarily good work will continue around the world and far into the future." Mara Krechevsky of Project Zero contributed a well-crafted and humorous limerick celebrating Gardner's scholarly career as well.
