Managing students in the classrooms with multiple intelligences is one of the tough issues teachers encounter. The practice of multiple intelligences instruction depends mainly on the teacher's performance in teaching. That is to challenge the students by setting high standards for further achievement and evaluate students' progress. The theory of Multiple Intelligence (MI) resonates with many educators. It gives an idea to create a relatively even distribution of students of different abilities and diverse educational needs. It has been found out that teachers who based their instructional practices on MI theory have more authentic classrooms, and students are more genuinely engaged in class. Hence, the paper describes the extent of multiple intelligences instructional practices and the level of teaching performance of the public elementary school. Likewise, it sought to determine the significant relationship between multiple intelligences instructional practices, teaching performance, and demographic profile of teachers.

Research studies have explored the effects of multiple intelligences (MI) theory on the academic achievement of students. Teachers who based their instructional practices on MI theory have more authentic classrooms, and students are more genuinely engaged in class. This quantitative study determined the associations between demographic variables, the extent of multiple intelligences instructional practices, and the level of teaching performance of 178 public elementary school teachers. Using an adapted instrument, and rating form, the data were collected and were analyzed using mean, standard deviation, and Pearson r. The findings showed a significant correlation between educational attainment and years of service of teachers and eight types of multiple intelligences instructional practices.  Likewise, teaching performance was associated with variables such as age and years of service. On the other hand, mathematical and naturalistic multiple intelligences instructional practices were also related to teaching performance. Generally, results showed no correlation between multiple intelligences instructional practices and teaching performance of the teachers.

Apresenta resultados de uma pesquisa que investigou as representações de “aluno da escola pública” construídas por professores da rede pública de ensino fundamental do Rio de Janeiro. Utilizando a abordagem estrutural de Abric, concluiu-se que o núcleo da representação é constituído pelos elementos pobre e aprende a “se virar” sozinho. Cotejando-se estes resultados com os obtidos nas etapas anteriores da pesquisa, observa-se que, para os professores, o aluno tem que aprender a “se virar” sozinho porque é pobre e a pobreza implicaria desagregação familiar e luta pela sobrevivência, impedindo os pais de oferecerem aos filhos a atenção de que necessitam. Dadas todas estas características, esse aluno representaria um desafio para os professores, desafio este que eles se sentem impotentes para enfrentar. Palavras-chave: representações sociais; aluno da escola pública; família e escola; fracasso escolar. Abstract The article presents a research that investigated the representations of the “public school student” constructed by public elementary school teachers of Rio de Janeiro. Using the structural approach proposed by Abric, one concluded that the nucleus of the representation is constituted by the elements poor and learns to make it on his own. Comparing these results with those obtained in the previous steps of the research, it can be observed that, to the teachers, the student has to learn to make it on his own because he is poor and poverty would imply family desegregation and struggle for survival, preventing the parents from providing their children with the attention they need. Given all those characteristics, this student would represent a challenge to the teachers, but this is a challenge they feel they are impotent to cope with. Keywords: social representations; public school student; family and school; school failure.

The study covered 9 central, and 9 noncentral public elementary schools. A stratified random sampling was adopted in this study. A two - part survey questionnaire was used. One part of the instrument drew information about the demographic profile of the public elementary school teachers. Part two of the questionnaire determined the affection and adequacy levels of the educational facilities in Public Elementary Schools, as perceived by the public elementary schools teachers, in terms of physical features, indoor environment, equipment and utilities, media and technology, and safety and security features. The findings revealed that, the educational facilities in public elementary schools in the Basilan, moderately affect the instructional function of the teachers. The Equipment and Utilities elements affect the instructional function of teachers to the greatest extent. The Safety & Security Features affect the instructional function of teachers to the least extent.   Keywords - Affection, Educational Facilities, Public Elementary Schools, Basilan, Autonomous Region for Muslim Mindanao

The field of school leadership has been continuously increasing in demands and had currently occupied the idea of distributed leadership. Distributed leadership is leadership that is "stretched over leaders and followers, which is beneficial in settings such as schools (Bonneville, 2017). The call for teachers as leaders in school to help implement the K-12 educational system had engaged them to take on collaborative roles. Thus, the study intended to describe the level of awareness and extent of practices of distributed leadership in terms of types such as collaborative, collective, and coordinated as assessed by public elementary school teachers. Moreover, it determined whether a significant relationship existed between the level of awareness and demographic profile and the extent of practices and demographic profile of teachers. Also, it intended to determine if there is a significant relationship between the awareness and practices of distributed leadership.

The theory of multiple intelligences has been embraced by the education and research communities worldwide. Substantial research has been conducted to understand multiple intelligences and learning. However, studies that examine how various types of technology affect across the board the different types of intelligences in learning is lacking. This chapter reviews the multiple intelligence (MI) theory and how emergent technologies can be used to support MI learning in education using a meta-analysis method. The results reveal that bodily-kinesthetic is most responsive to technology-based intervention compared to other types of intelligences and that immersive and visual images are effective in improving verbal linguistic and bodily-kinesthetic intelligences. Discussion of the findings are made along with their implications in educational practices. Suggestions for future research and practice are made in regard to multiple intelligence and emergent digital technology.
