Teaching and learning the elements of arithmetic and algebra using the multiple intelligence theory*

Beata Matłosz — 2012

Didactica Mathematicae

In this paper, the author analyzes her personal experiences in applying the theory of multiple intelligences to the teaching of algebra to below–average 14-year-old students. The research was intended to determine whether dominant intelligence type (as indicated by Gardner’s typology of multiple intelligences) influences the learning of mathematics. It was hypothesized that pairing didactic methods with dominant intelligence types would improve students’ mathematics learning. Two multiple intelligences...

A multiple intelligence approach to teaching algebra

Beata Matłosz — 2010

Didactica Mathematicae

Since Howard Gardner first introduced the theory of multiple intelligences, asserting that individuals vary in their response to learning according to their dominant intelligence type, his theory has been applied to the didactics of a wide range of subjects. Yet despite the theory's wide application, its role in the instruction of algebra has received little attention in the literature. This article discusses the responses of two students with different multiple intelligence types (i.e., interpersonal...
