| Abstract | The goal of this research is to investigate whether there is a significant difference between multiple intelligence instruction and traditionally designed science instruction on 7th grade students’ understanding of concept with the “The Structure of Material and Its Transformation” unit and attitudes toward science. Two classes, each with 27 students were randomly selected. The experimental group was instructed though MI strategies, whereas the control group was utilized with traditional methods. The measurement instruments utilized were Chemistry Achievement Test and Science Attitude Scale. As a result of this study it was found out that multiple intelligence theory, when compared to the traditional learning method, created positive effects on students’ success and attitudes toward science as a school subject. |
