SANTOS RODAS, Rosario Margarita. Effects of a program of teaching of the chemistry in secondary based on use of the theory of multiple intelligences (T.M.I.). Rev. Soc. Quím. Perú [online]. 2009, vol.75, n.3, pp.382-394. ISSN 1810-634X.

The present investigation was designed to determine the effects of a program of teaching based on the use of the T.M.I. in the scholastic yield of the area science, technology and environment in students of the third degree of secondary. The subjects developed in the teaching program were: matter, atom and periodic table. By means of the results obtained in the present investigation it has been verified that applying a program of education based on the use of the T.M.I. improves the scholastic yield. Having itself obtained a better level of understanding of basic information as much inferencial in the students who took the program indicated above. With respect to the investigation and experimentation also better results in the students of the experimental group were registered, who managed to reach the levels of application learning, analysis and synthesis, as product of the design of activities on the basis of the use of multiple intelligences, that stimulated so much the processes of experimentation as of investigation. In addition, it allowed, as a result of the previous processes, that the students can emit analyses with respect to the conclusions obtained in the developed activities in the class sessions. In the investigation, one verified that establishing suitable bonds of communication in the classroom, a propitious atmosphere for the significant learning is being obtained, considering that the education is not only to inform or to transmit, but also is to interchange and to socialize information, to put something common with others, to share ideas and different points of view. Finally, it is possible to be concluded that the use of a program of education based on the T.M.I. favors so much the scholastic yield as the climate obtained in the classroom.

Keywords : multiple intelligences; significant learning; scholastic yield; scholastic climate.
