An Evaluation of the Teaching Activities Implemented in the Elementary Science and Technology Courses in Terms of Multiple Intelligence Theory: A Sample …

2011

The aim of this study was to evaluate to what extent class activities at the Elementary Science and Technology course address intelligence areas. The research was both a quantitative and a qualitative study. The sample of the study consisted of 102 4th grade elementary teachers, 97 5th grade elementary teachers, and 55 6th, 7th, and 8th grade science and technology teachers, including 254 teachers in total. The data in the study were collected through "The Inventory of Class Activities Done in line with the Intelligence Areas", and "the Semistructured Interview Form". The quantitative data were analyzed by descriptive statistics such as mean, standard deviation, and one-way analysis of variance. The qualitative data were analysed by content analysis as well. It was found that teachers generally used activities addressing for all intelligence areas, they were aware of the multiple intelligence theory, not the subject teachers but the elementary teachers and the senior teachers use teaching activities for more than one intelligence area in their classes. It was determined from the teachers' responses to the questionnaire that teachers were aware of the activities for intelligence areas. However, the interviews revealed that they could not transfer their knowledge about intelligence areas into their classes. Therefore; it could be observed and investigated why teachers did not implement their knowledge about multiple intelligence theory into their classes and their efforts in the preparation, planning, practice and evaluation phases of teaching.

Integrating Multiple Intelligence in Teaching Mathematics

This research focuses in the implementation of the Multiple Intelligences as an approach in teaching Mathematics. The researchers integrate the top three Multiple Intelligences of the students in discussing mathematical concepts. They used books, journals, magazines and online articles to support the results that they obtained in conducting experimental research. As a result, the paper shows that Multiple Intelligence approach enhance the students’ performance by having a significant difference on the pre-test and post-test. In addition, traditional approach can still be used for the reason that it also improves the result of the students’ attitude towards mathematics. This study will enlighten the schools, teachers and even the students about the value of Multiple Intelligences in teaching. As a recommendation, future researchers can employ the Multiple Intelligences stated by Gardner in order to utilize the potential of all the students.
