Multiple Intelligence Theory and Its Effect in Raisin the Van Hiele Levels of Thinking

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.
