Abstract

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of multiple intelligencesbased

learning on raising the learner’s geometric thinking levels according to

(Van Hiele) is point of view.

A sample of (33) learners of Al-Quds Open University was selected.

Their multiple intelligences and their levels of Van Hiele were investigated

before and after taking a course that was developed according to the multiple

intelligences theory. The study tools’ validity and reliability were tested;

the study followed the experimental design .

The statistical analyses revealed the following results:

1. The research assesses all of the eight multiple intelligences in different

proportions.

2. There were significant statistical improvements at (α= 0.05) on the mean

of (Van Hiele) geometric thinking levels after applying the developed

multiple intelligences-based course on the experimental group.

In light of these findings, it is recommended that developing the contents

of the curricula and the method of teaching should take into account multiple

intelligences and the hierarchical (Van Hiele) geometric thinking levels.
