Importance of applying multiple intelligence theory in Bangladeshi schools

Abstract

This paper focuses on the importance of multiple intelligence theory in Bangladeshi schools. In Bangladesh most of the schools does not have a MI theory based education system. A lot of teachers support an MI theory based education system in our country and they are very much interested to apply this theory based education system in our country and they are very much interested to apply this theory in their classes but due to certain impediments they cannot. This report studies the opinion and general views of tertiary level students from different universities of Bangladesh. Research findings indicate that both students and teachers realize the necessity of an MI theory based education system and they agreed to imply this in our schools. On the other way most of the schools authorities are not resourceful enough to facilitate their education system with MI theory and more importantly their lack of willingness also stands as an obstacle in this issue. As a result the entire teaching-learning process is being affected along with the teachers and the students. Eventually the classroom system remains inside the shell of the traditional education system. This thesis concludes some of the reflections of both students and teachers to justify their real perception about this issue.
