The purpose of the study was to investigate the students̕ multiple intelligences according to their preferences and how students̕ multiple intelligences differ in terms of grade level (first, third fifth and eighth) and gender. This research was conducted at Middle East Technical University Development Foundation School in the spring of the 2001-2002 academic-year with three classes from each level namely first grade, third grade, fifth grade and eight grade. In this study, Pictorial Teele Inventory for Multiple Intelligences was applied on 321 students and the results were analyzed. In order to examine the effect of the gender and grade level on students̕ Multiple Intelligences mean, standard deviation and MANOVA were used. Results showed that students multiple intelligences showed variety according to their grade levels. For example, the students at the first grade level demonstrated strong preference for linguistic intelligence and logical-mathematical intelligence in the first grade and the two intelligences were followed by spatial intelligence, and bodily kinesthetic intelligence. While the third grade students̕ most dominant intelligences preferences were interpersonal, spatial, logical-mathematical, and linguistic intelligence the fifth and eight grade students̕ preferences were interpersonal intelligence bodily-kinesthetic intelligence, musical intelligence, and spatial intelligence. When results are eximined in terms of gender, it can be said that the male students̕ logical-mathematical and bodily kinesthetic intelligence mean scores were higher than female students̕ whereas the female students̕ musical intelligence mean score was higher than male students̕.

The effect of multiple intelligences based instruction on students physics achievement
Gürçay, Deniz; Eryılmaz, Ali; Department of Secondary Science and Mathematics Education (2003)
The main purpose of this study is to compare the effects of the Multiple Intelligences based instruction versus traditional instruction on ninth grade students' physics achievement. MI inventory, Attitude Scale Toward the Content أCoulomb̕s Lawؤ, Multiple Choice Physics Achievement test on the content أCoulomb̕s Lawؤ, and MI based Physics Achievement rubric were used as measuring tools. The study was conducted with 268 ninth grade public high school students in Sincan district in the spring semester 2002-20...
Investigating Elementary School Students' Motivational Traits in Science Classrooms
Gocer, Fatma Yavuz; Sungur, Semra; Öztekin, Ceren (2011-07-01)
This study examined elementary students' motivational traits in science with respect to students' gender and grade levels. A total of 3685 students from 6th, 7th and 8th grade levels participated in the study. Findings showed that gender and grade level differences exist among elementary students. Concerning the gender difference, girls appeared to be more curious, conscientious, and social with a higher level of need for achievement. Moreover, it was revealed that as grade level increased, students' motiva...
The effects of multiple representations-based instruction on seventh grade students' algebra performance, attitude towards mathematics, and representation preference.
Çıkla Akkuş, Oylum; Çakıroğlu, Erdinç; Department of Secondary Science and Mathematics Education (2004)
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of multiple representations-based instruction on seventh grade students̕ algebra performance, attitudes toward mathematics, and representation preference compared to the conventional teaching. Moreover, it was aimed to find out how students use multiple representations in algebraic situations and the reasons of preferring certain modes of representations. The study was conducted in four seventh grade classes from two public schools in Ankara in the 20...

Development and validation of nature of science instrument for elementary school students
HACIEMİNOĞLU, ESME; Yılmaz Tüzün, Özgül; ERTEPINAR, HAMİDE (2014-05-01)
The purposes of this study were to develop and validate an instrument for assessing elementary students’ nature of science (NOS) views and to explain the elementary school students’ NOS views, in terms of varying grade levels and gender. The sample included 782 students enrolled in sixth, seventh, and eighth grades. Exploratory factor analysis factor structures and confirmatory factor analysis fit indices confirmed the existence of the hypothesised four dimensions in the structure of the nature of science i...
