Exploring Multiple Intelligence - Based Education at Private Schools in Karachi

Abstract

The current study focused to explore multiple intelligence-based education at private schools in Karachi. The study employed the qualitative research methodology to seek the in-depth knowledge of the issue. Primary and secondary teachers who are working in private schools in DHA Karachi were the population of our study. Convenient and purposive sampling was employed and 10 teachers were selected for the interviews. For data collection, a semi-structured questionnaire was prepared. The main findings of the study were the strategies to cater each intelligence and the barriers to promote Multiple Intelligence in classrooms. The research suggests that teachers should implement a mix of hands-on activities, visual-aids, group work and discussions to cater students of different intelligences. Overcoming these obstacles requires ongoing professional development, collaboration with educators, the allocation of adequate resources to support the execution of strategies that address the multiple intelligence of students
