The research aims to identify the effect of implementing multiple intelligences theory based teaching towards students’ achievement on electrical circuit topic. Totally 66 of 8th grade junior high school students were selected through convenience sampling technique as experimental group subjects of this research. The experimental group was instructed to learn through multiple intelligences theory based teaching as the treatment in learning electrical circuit topic. This experimental study lasted for 6 meetings in 6 weeks and conducted using one group pre-test and post-test design. To evaluate the effect of the treatment on students’ achievement, an achievement test about electrical circuit topic which consisted of 24 items was distributed and analyzed using SPSS. The result showed that normalized gain value was 0.28 which categorized as a low improvement. In other word, students’ achievement on electrical circuit topic improved after being taught by multiple intelligences theory based teaching.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
