Applying Multiple Intelligence Theory and Interactive Whiteboard for Mathematics Learning

The paper presents a new instructional design which is developed by applying multiple intelligence theory and interactive whiteboard in mathematics learning. A quasi-experiment is also conducted for 6th-grade in an elementary school in Taiwan. The elementary mathematic unit, "the scale", is taken as the teaching materials for the investigation of students' learning performance and attitude. The experimental results show that the experimental group, who is received by the new instructional design, has significantly better learning achievement than that of the control group, who is received by the traditional fashion. Additionally, the experimental results reflect no significant difference between these two groups for learning attitude.
