The Level of Multiple Intelligences of the Taflia Technical University Students

Abstract

The study investigates the levels of Multiple Intelligences (MI) among univer-sity students at Tafila Technical University, Jordan. A random sample of 628 students was selected. The McKenzie scale was used to measure eight MI types. Results indicate an average level of MI among students, with interper-sonal intelligence ranking highest and musical intelligences lowest. No statisti-cally significant differences were found based on college (scientific vs. human-ities). The study concludes that family socialization prioritizes grads over learning methods, and traditional teaching approaches fail to identify and de-velop students’ diverse intelligences. Recommendations include adjusting fam-ily socialization strategies and implementing university programs to foster MI development.
