Abstract
Introduction: The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of motor skills training based on multiple intelligences on academic excitement in elementary school children.
Method: The research method was semi-experimental with a pre-test and post-test design with the presence of four groups، including three test groups (kinesthetic intelligence group، musical intelligence group، and mathematical intelligence group) and a control group. The statistical population is the male elementary school students of Chaypareh city who were studying in the academic year 1399-1400. The statistical sample consisted of 60 people selected through purposive sampling, and 45 students were divided into three groups with mathematical intelligence, musical intelligence, and motor intelligence, and one group randomly was selected as the control group randomly. Before the experiments in the experimental and control groups, the Pekran Academic Excitement Test were performed as pre-tests. Then, during two months and in 16 sessions (two one-hour sessions per week), the students were examined in such a way that the control group performed motor skills traditionally and commonly in schools, and the experimental groups based on their predominant intelligence type. At the end of the experiment, tests of academic excitement and motor proficiency were taken as post-tests from both experimental and control groups. This research was conducted in the field to be practical.
Results: The results showed that teaching movement skills based on multiple intelligences has a positive effect on students' academic excitement; Also، the results of the independent t-test in all types of groups showed that in the academic excitement test، in all three experimental groups، the subscale of enjoyment of the class increased significantly. The negative subscales (including anxiety، shame، anger، frustration، and fatigue) increased. they have decreased significantly. In the case of the control group، the subscale of enjoyment of the class decreased and the negative subscales of academic excitement، except for anxiety، increased.
Conclusion: According to the results of this research، it is suggested that in schools and sports academies intended for children، to increase positive emotions، teachers and sports coaches should teach movement skills based on multiple intelligences.
