ThesisItem Open Access Intervention Package to Enhance the Multiple Intelligence of Slow Learner (Age group 12-14 years)(CCSHAU, 2006) Kirtika; Sangwan, SheelaA 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.ThesisItem Open Access Intervention package to enhance multiple intelligence among young adolescents(CCSHAU, 2006) Gurpreet Kaur; Chhikara, SudhaThe aim of the present investigation was to develop an intervention package to enhance multiple intelligence of young adolescents (12-14 years). To fulfill this objective, a tool on multiple intelligence was developed consisting of nine components of intelligence namely, Linguistic, Logical-mathematical, Musical, Bodily-kinesthetic, Visual-spatial, Interpersonal, Intrapersonal, Naturalistic and Existential intelligence. Standardization was done on a sample of 60 young adolescents. The developed tool reported satisfactorily high reliability and validity coefficients. Means, standard deviations and percentile ranks were computed to describe the normative data. To assess the existing status of multiple intelligence of young adolescent the developed multiple intelligence tool was administered on 200 adolescents of 12-14 years of age. Majority of respondents were found average in all the nine components of intelligence. An intervention package was developed to enhance the intellectual abilities of adolescents. Out of 200 respondents, 45 adolescents, 5 under each intelligence, were selected for administration of intervention package. The results revealed significant differences between pre and post intervention performance of adolescents on all aspects of intelligence except for naturalistic intelligence. The various factors identified at the micro, meso, exo, macro and chrono levels of adolescent’s human ecological environment were found to be associated with adolescent’s performance on Multiple Intelligence Tool. It was suggested that timely identification and interventions should be arranged to enhance the optimum growth and development of intellectual skills of young adolescents.ThesisItem Open Access Intervention programme for delayed motor development of 2-3 years old rural children(CCSHAU, 2006) Shanwal, Pooja; Chandra K. SinghThe study was conducted in Haryana State, in rural area of Hisar District in Block-One. From Block-One, two villages were selected. Village Kaimari acted as Experimental group and village Mangali acted as Control group. 100 children of 2-3 years old from each village were selected randomly. Mothers of these children were also included in this study. These children were assessed for their motor skills with the help of Bayley Scales of Infant Development (BSID) by Nancy Bayley, second, edition (1969) and Berry’s Development Test of Visual Motor Integration (VMI) (1989). Maternal involvement in stimulation of motor skills of the children were assessed though a self-prepared questionnaire-cum-interview schedule. On the basis of results obtained after pre-testing, the below average children along with their mothers in experimental group were given an intervention programme for a period of one month. After intervention programme, the respondents along with their mothers were again assessed for their level of motor skills in both the experimental and control groups. It was found that there was a certain impact of intervention programme on the respondents and their mothers in experimental group. However, the boys performed better than girls in experimental group because they received an intensive care from their mothers. The respondents of control group showed a little improvement due to the maturation (physically as well as mentally) they received with time.
