you should use a rubric based on what you expect the child to be able to know or understand by the end of the unit, regardless of which of the intelligences or choices within the unit the child has taken part in.

You should read books by Howard Gardner, Thomas Armstrong and others on the topic:

I believe that your asking about the Seven Intelligences theory. This theory, originally formulated by Howard Gardner, states that there are seven different areas of intelligence. Linguistic and Logical/Mathematical are the only two tested in traditional IQ tests. There are also Bodily/Kinesic (athletic and dance ability), Interpersonal (aptitude for social skills), Intrapersonal (aptitude for self-knowledge), Musical and Spatial. If you do a web search for "seven intelligences" or "multiple intelligences" you'll find a number of resources for this.
