the application of Multiple Intelligences theory in accommodating classroom activities to EFL learners’ Multiple Intelligences at Tran Hung Dao Foreign Language Center in Binh Thuan province The research aimed to examine whether the classroom activities accommodated to learners’ Multiple Intelligences could enhance learners’ motivation An experimental teaching was carried out on the two different classes at elementary level with two different teaching methods The first class, the control group, has instructed through the Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) approach and the second class, the experimental group, was taught in the light of the theory of Multiple Intelligences Data were collected through questionnaire survey At the beginning of the course, questionnaires on Multiple Intelligences were delivered to the learners in the experimental group to identify the distribution of learners’ Multiple Intelligences At the end of the course, questionnaires on motivation were given to both groups to discern the change in learners’ motivation The responses were collected and analysed by Excel The data analysis showed that classroom activities accommodated to learners’ Multiple Intelligences improved learning motivation The findings indicated that learners’ motivation in the experimental group was strongly enhanced The thesis, therefore, suggests accommodating classroom activities to learners’ Multiple Intelligences in order to provoke learners’ motivation Some implications and tentative recommendations are made regarding the v accommodation of classroom activities to learners’ Multiple Intelligence to language teachers and administrators of foreign language center vi TABLE OF CONTENTS Page Statement of authority i Retention and use of the thesis ii
