Abstract
Teachers must try to differentiate
instruction to meet the needs of a
student’s intelligence.
Technology is one tool to use for differentiation.

S
Purpose……to determine the effectiveness of
technology to enhance Gardner’s theory of multiple intelligences in the
elementary science classroom.

Question & Hypothesis
Does technology-enhanced multiple intelligence differentiated instruction improve student achievement in the elementary science classroom?
Students in the experimental classroom (technology) will have higher scores in the final assessment than those in the control group.
Research Question:
My Hypothesis:

What is MIT?
I am Howard Gardner. In 1983 I introduced the theory of multiple intelligences. Everyone has each
intelligence to some extent but some intelligences are stronger than others.
The intelligences are:
Linguistic, mathematical, spatial, kinesthetic, musical, intrapersonal,
interpersonal, and naturalistic.Psalm 139: You are wonderfully made! (McCoog, 2007)

What is knowledge?
According to Adams (2004) knowledge can be defined as what we know or believe to exist. The ways of knowing are how we internalize knowledge (Adams, 2004). and I have filled him with the Spirit of God, with wisdom, with understanding, with knowledge and with all kinds of skills—Exodus 31:3

What is intelligence?
Intelligence is the ability to solve problems, or fashion products, that
are valued in one or more cultural or community settings.
(Gardner, 1983)

Dependent Variable?Student test scores! (What do I observe?)
Controlled Variable?Pretest and post-test

Independent Variable?Type of instruction ~ teacher or technology?
Students with technology-enhanced instruction will score higher on the posttest than those in a traditional classroom.

Literature Review - Summary
(Gooch, 2011)
![Page 11: Pamela L. Jimison Liberty University](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5681670a550346895ddb7292/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Literature Review
Students started out as self-defeated and angry. The school utilized servant leadership and technology.
Students became proud, self-directed learners.
Grandfather Academy
(Herman, 2008)

Literature Review
Inclusion school for MIT
Students modified artists’ pictures in paint, wrote poems, created multimedia projects
Students far exceeded the mastery of content required.
Hemenway School
Boston, Massachusetts
(Lach, Little, & Nazzaro, 2003)

Literature Review
Quantitative and qualitative study on use of blogs. It revealed that technology was engaging and interactive.
Quantitative study on MIT in computer classes ~ students scored high with technology than traditional classroom teaching.

Significant Themes from Literature Reviews:
Technology is one tool that can tap into the varying intelligences and allow the educator to better meet the needs of students. In the elementary science classroom, technology can be used to enhance the learning community and engage learners. It allows the teacher to supplement strengths and improve weaknesses.

Methods of data collection
Administer Multiple Intelligence Fields Observation Form Student Version to determine predominant intelligences
Administer a 75 question pretest to both groups
Observation Notes
Administer the same 75 question post-test to both groups
