The level of multiple intelligences among history students At the College of Education/ Mustansiriyah University

Abstract

 The study aimed to identify the level of multiple intelligences among students of the history departments in the faculties of education. The researcher relied on a theoretical background and previous studies to benefit from them in the research requirements and procedures. The researcher adopted the experimental approach to reach the results of the research، and the research sample consisted of (150) male and female students، who were selected by a stratified random method with a proportional distribution from (3) colleges. The search tool was the list of multiple intelligences of (Walter Mackenzie) consisting of nine sub-lists، and each list includes (10) items، and its measurement direction is positive. It is presented to students and each list tests one type of the nine types of intelligences. And after verifying the validity of the paragraphs of the list of multiple intelligences and the clarity of the paragraphs and the time spent، the list was corrected using statistical methods to process the research data through the statistical bag for social sciences (SPSS)، and in light of it، the researcher concluded that there is a statistically significant difference in favor of the students who applied the research tool to them، and it was found that the students have multiple intelligences,

 The researcher concluded:- that the students of the history departments in the faculties of education have the ability to have multiple intelligences. The multiple intelligences of the students of the history departments in the faculties of education vary from one intelligence to another.

 The researcher recommended: -1.Taking into account the levels of multiple intelligences among students upon admission to the colleges of education2. Directing the faculty members to take into account the individual differences between students in multiple intelligences when presenting the study material.3. The different curricula include the capabilities of multiple intelligences، and strategies for developing them among university students.

 I suggested conducting a study: 1. Multiple intelligences and their relationship to self-efficacy among university students. 2. Emotional intelligence and its relationship to self-regulation among university students. 3- Multiple intelligences among middle school students.
