ROLE OF MULTIPLE INTELLIGENCE IN DEVELOPING POSITIVE ATTITUDE TOWARDS MATHEMATICS
P.Udaya and Dr. V.Jyothi
Abstract
”Anything that is worth teaching can be presented in many different ways. These multiple ways can make use of our multiple intelligences”. A small change in the mind can make a large difference in anyone’s attitude. Intelligence is considered as very important ability of an individual. Gardner has propounded the theory of Intelligence and came up with eight independent types of intelligence that grow and develop. These intelligences have scope of developing like or dislike towards any activity. When coming to academics we can corelate those intelligences with the different subjects that are dealt. As we know Mathematics plays a vital role in anyone’s life because it is very much related to our daily life. It deals with so many problems. Problem solving is one of the main activities in dealing with Mathematics. So Problem solving is considered as heart of the Mathematics learning which can be influenced by intelligence. Logical- Mathematical, visual-spatial and intrapersonal intelligence have possible effects in problem solving. By developing these intelligences problem solving ability can be improved with which the student develops positive attitude towards Mathematics.
