Importance Of Multiple Intelligences To Help Teachers

Understand Student

Understanding the
factors that activate or
inhibit the
development of
intelligence

a variety of teaching
and learning

Understanding the
teacher that a variety
of teaching methods
can develop different
intelligences

Provide a memorable
learning

Demanding teacher to
guide students on how
to make full use of
available intelligence
in them

Help improve
students' selfconfidence

Emotional Intelligence
CONCEPT
- Emotional intelligence includes two aspects of
the theory of multiple intelligences
intelligence, the interpersonal and

AND EMOTIONAL LEARNING
TO SOLVE PROBLEMS

in specific areas

provide an opportunity for every

RESULT

ISSUE : Learning And

Teaching Styles Between
Prime Students And PKI
Students

Literature riview
Teaching methods
Variety teaching methods of presentation is an
important component to motivate student interest and
involvement of studies. (Moores, 1987:1)
Student learning styles
Although there are many theories on thinking and
learning, it is largely accepted that students learn in
different ways (Fleming, 2001; Gaiptman & Anthony,
1989; Howard & Howard, 1993; Schulz, 1993)
Student attitudes
MacMullin (1994) found that students social and
emotional difficulties, and their inability to use socially
skilful ways to gain teacher support, can result in low
academic achievement (5).

Data Analysis
From our interviewed, we have found that, there are
several problem in teaching and learning in this
school. Therefore a quantitative approach is used in
this study, specifically, using a survey method to
collect the data through an interview and
questionnaire.
The questionnaires are contributes to students from
PPKI and prime student in SMK Desa Chempaka. A
total of 3 teachers selected in this study through
simple interview. The questionnaire contained 10
question to collect information from the respondents.
The study results are as follows :

Facilities teaching material in schools

Based on the interviews conducted, we found that the school
does not have complete facilities such as LCD especially for
prime students. According to Mrs.Nordiana he had to provide their
own teaching and learning materials such as notes, strengthening
exercises, slide show.
For students PKI, according to Madam Hjh Che Norizan although
their syllabus prepared by the Ministry of Education, but she
herself had to modify the syllabus according to student ability.
Learning environment that is not conducive
For prime student, schools cannot provide a classroom
environment that is conducive to student use in teaching and
learning because the lighting does not match the teaching style
for projector used. In addition, too many students can caused the
class uncomfortable situation.
For students PKI they were provided with a special class of
comfort.

Students attitudes
For prime students, the main problem is the attitude of
students who are active, quick to feel tired and less involved in
teaching and learning. According to Mrs. Nordiana he was
overcome by involving the student movement itself. In
addition, Mrs. Nordiana using group activities such as making
practical to reduce student feeling bored Mrs. Nordiana also use
such an approach involving the student to demonstrate with
teacher and student-centered.

While students PKI have a different attitude because of different

problems such as slow learner, dyslexia, and autism. Their
character are difficult to control, speech problems and less
manipulative skills. Mrs Hjh Norizan overcome the problem by
giving more attention to the students and they use the concept
give and reward. In addition, she also uses the teaching and
learning that involves the movement of hands and feet.

Different of interest
For prime students, there are differences interest in subjects
such as mathematics and language. Students that interested in
mathematics, said mathematics can use in everyday life such as
money. While student was interest in language because it is more
easily.
PKI students interested in all the subjects because teachers use a
variety of teaching methods such as gardening, cooking, sports
and etc.
Peer influence
Influence of friends among the prime students bring more
advantages , but there are also have disadvantages. Among the
advantages is the influence of these partners motivated them to
study hard and raise the spirit to go to school. While the
disadvantages is bother them to make revision. For example
texting can make them loss of concentration to make a revision.
PKI students, peer influence does not affect them during the
teaching and learning process. They are more interested to ask
the teacher from friends.

Participation in class
Prime students prefer to like in teaching and learning that
involves two-way. For example, teacher prefer students to ask
questions during the process of teaching and learning and
involves the interaction of students and teachers.
PKI students very active during teaching and learning because
they like to answer the question from teacher.

Teachers teaching style

Some prime students teacher using the boring method of
teaching and learning that can make student quickly feel sleepy
and dull. This is because teacher not use the interesting material
during teaching and only read the text book without interacting
with student
PKI students prefer teachers teaching in the classroom for a
variety of teaching methods. They do not feel bored in the
classroom, they feel good when doing activities outside the
classroom and teaching and learning through visual and other.

Conclusion
Based on the research conducted, shows that the
plan is more to students centered and teaching
material can act and serve as the efforts to
increase student involvement in the classroom.
This point is further reinforced by the application
of Multiple Intelligences Theory to make lessons
more interesting environment.
Teachers are innovative, creative, concerned and
should receive the most optimistic possible learning
styles in order to produce a generation of brilliant
students from various aspects.
