Counselling unit plays a vital role at school as they deal with students’ problem and finding solutions to that. In most cases, students are not aware of their actual strength(s) which led to unsatisfied performance in academic and uncertainty in choosing the right courses which later affect their career. The aim of this research is to identify the evaluation criteria for Malaysian school students’ context in order to discover students’ major strengths, which in turn will help counsellors to consult students in terms of academic achievement and suggest suitable courses for them based on the intelligence test. The interview was conducted with several number of counsellors and the multiple intelligence theory was used to generate set of automated intelligence test based on the evaluation criteria. A series of evaluation were conducted to test its usability and quality requirements.

The aim of the research is to investigate whether "Teaching Mathematics for the 2nd grade of elementary school in an appropriate way for the theory of multiple intelligences on geometric subjects" has any impact on students’ academic achievement or not. The research is an experimental study and it was conducted with the students of the 2nd grade class in a primary school in Küçükçekmece province of Istanbul in 2016-2017 education year. A total of 60 students participated in the research, 30 in the experimental group and 30 in the control group. In the control group, while the subject "geometric objects" was taught using traditional methods, the same subject in the experimental group was taught by curriculums prepared in accordance with the Multiple Intelligence Theory. The study lasted for 4 weeks together with the applications of test development, pre-test, post-test and course work. The application was performed by researchers. The data obtained from the application were evaluated in the SPSS 22 Program. As a result of the evaluations made, it was concluded that the lesson which was taught by using the curriculums prepared according to the Multiple Intelligences Theory had a more positive effect on student achievement compared to the lesson which was taught using traditional methods.Keywords: Multiple Intelligence Theory, Mathematics, Geometry, Academic Achievement

Intelligence Theory

Review of literature shows that empirical research on vocational intelligence (VQ) is lacking as compared to substantial research conducted on intellectual intelligence (IQ and emotional intelligence (EQ).  Vocational intelligence is a new theory. It could be an offshoot from Howard Gardner’s multiple intelligence theory.  The main objective of this investigation was to determine the vocational intelligence of technical school apprentices in the state of Perak, Malaysia. Gardner and Holland theories have been chosen as the basis for the study’s conceptual framework that contained six domains of vocational intelligence, namely realistic and artistic intelligence, artistic and realistic tendencies, and kinesthetic and visual talents. Multiple cases and multiple sites case study was selected as the study’s research design. A random sample of 306 vocational students was selected from four technical secondary institutions in Perak. Research instrument comprised questionnaire and interview questions to gather quantitative and qualitative information. Key finding from the questionnaire is that the technical secondary students believe that they possess the three main competencies ─ visual, kinesthetic, and artistic. The result also shows that background aspects of the students did not influence their VQ except the schoolings of the father and mother.  In terms of the relationships among constructs, Pearson correlation coefficients show strong correlations among artistic competence with artistic tendency and realistic competence with realistic tendency. In contrast to questionnaire data, open-ended results show the technical school students believed that they are dominantly realistic, followed by artistic and visual. Interview data via thematic analyses show that students admitted that they have realistic VQ.
