Description
Summary:This paper presents a part of an ongoing study on incorporating the Multiple Intelligence into learning materials for children.This study believes that incorporating the Multiple Intelligence theory into learning materials is able to add more values towards the usability aspects of learning materials.In accordance, this paper aims at describing an attempt in designing a learning material that incorporates the Multiple Intelligence.In particular, the aims of the paper are (1) to suggest on how the elements of Multiple Intelligence could be incorporated into learning materials and (2) to outline the design and development of a sample of learning material that incorporates the Multiple Intelligence.User-centered design (UCD)approach is used as part of the methods in the design process, which involves three stages: (1)requirement gathering, (2) prototype development,and (3) user testing. This study involves children and teachers at kindergartens. As the results, an initial design of the learning material that incorporates the Multiple Intelligence is obtained and discussed in this paper at length.
