    Intervention Package to Enhance the Multiple Intelligence of Slow Learner (Age group 12-14 years)
    (CCSHAU, 2006) Kirtika; Sangwan, Sheela
    A slow learning child is one whose general intelligence of academic aptitude is limited compared with children of chronological age. Educational administrators, teachers, parents and social worker face the problem of such children. Slow learner should be assessed in their age otherwise; it may lead to various behaviour adjustment difficulties. The present study was undertaken to assess the impact of intervention package on multiple intelligence of slow learners. The study was carried out purposively in Hisar city of Haryana state. A sample of 100 slow learners were also selected purposively. Out of 100 slow learners 72 slow learners were selected who had high level of multiple intelligence and these 72 slow learners were divided into two groups i.e. experimental group (36) and control group (36). Multiple intelligence of slow learners served as he dependent variable and micro system, meso system and exo system served as the independent variables in he present study. Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale (1972) was used to assess the IQ level of the children and Multiple Intelligence Tool (Intervention Package to Enhance the Multiple Intelligence Among Young Adolescents By Gurpreet) was used to assess the multiple intelligence of slow learner children. Majority of the slow learners were female, belonged to nuclear family. During pre-testing most of the slow learner falls in the below average category of multiple intelligence according to raw scores. Interpersonal intelligence was significantly associated with micro system variables. Interpersonal, linguistic and spatial intelligence were significantly associated with meso system variables. Linguistic intelligence was significantly associated with exo system variables. Intervention package was planned and given to the experimental group for one month duration. During post-testing more number of children of experimental group was equal to norms mean scores of all multiple intelligence aspects. The improvement in multiple intelligence of experimental group was found to be statistically significant after intervention. Impact of intervention package revealed that experimental group performed better in all he activities of the multiple intelligence. Net gain in multiple intelligence of slow learners was maximum in musical intelligence.
