In the lecture the professor mentions that chess playing is a good example of the use of visual-spatial intelligence. Chess players must make a plan for each move and foresee its consequence. This point illustrates the idea in the reading passage that visual-spatial intelligence is the ability to create and transform metal imagery.

The professor also gives an Example of a blind-folded chess player. He can play several games at the same time and remember each move of the chess board. This point illustrates the notion in the reading passage that those who have visual-spatial intelligence have good visual memory.

In the lecture the professor refers to the ability of the chase players who can recall previous important chess games. What he can remember is not merely rote memory but the plan and strategy of each game. This point again illustrates the idea in the reading passage that those with visual-spatial intelligence have abstract not pictorial memory.

The lecture also mentions that chess masters can reconstruct a chess board which he sees after a few seconds if the chess pieces are rationally located. This point supports the idea in the reading passage that a person with visual-spatial intelligence can memorize and draw the picture of an object which he has just seen.
