The Perceptions of Flight Instructors Regarding the Application of Multiple Intelligences Theory in Flight Training

<div>

<p>For several decades,
educators have used Howard Gardner’s (1983) Multiple Intelligences Theory in a
variety of ways to make teaching and learning more effective. However, within
flight instruction, little or no attention has been focused on the concept of Multiple
Intelligences and their impacts on student learning and retention.
Consequently, the purpose of this study was to determine if Certified Flight
Instructors (CFI) who have been provided with information about Multiple
Intelligences perceived a positive relationship between their new knowledge
about Multiple Intelligences and their instructional effectiveness. The study
used participant journals, focus groups, and individual interviews to determine
if CFIs perceived Multiple Intelligences Theory to be valuable when applied to
flight instruction. The results indicated that the participants believed
Multiple Intelligences Theory added value to their flight instruction. Implications
for practice and directions for future research are provided.</p>
