Design and application of a physical programming course for the development of multiple intelligences in children

Abstract

This study uses a physical programming course to explore the development of children’s multiple intelligences. The process includes the design of teaching objectives, course design, course implementation and evaluation of effectiveness. A graphic multiple intelligences test scale was designed to measure children’s multiple intelligences. The study was conducted as a controlled experiment and the implementation of the courses showed that the physical programming coursess had a significant effect on the development of children’s natural observation, visual-spatial and mathematical-logical intelligences compared to the traditional courses.
