The Consistency of the Teele Multiple Intelligence Inventory (TIMI) Scale with Children's Preferences in Investigating the Intelligence Areas of Preschool Children
South African Journal of Education, v42 suppl 1 Article 2135 Dec 2022
The study reported on here was conducted to examine the consistency of the views of children and teachers in predicting the multiple intelligence areas of children at the end of the education programme provided in an enriched class based on multiple intelligence practices in a pre-school education institution. Using the pre-test-education-post-test experimental method, we applied the relational pattern to investigate the relationship between the 2 variables. The sample group of this study consisted of 34 children aged 5 to 6 years, 17 in the experimental and 17 in the control group. As data collection tools, the TIMI Inventory developed by Teele (1992) and an application (colour-bead system) containing assessments of the children's preferences were applied. The findings obtained in this study show that in 7 of the 17 children, the intelligence/skills area revealed by the evaluations of their preferences was similar to the results of the TIMI Inventory.
