Multiple intelligences as a strategy for Physical Education: a didactic intervention during the pandemic/Inteligencias múltiples como estrategia para la Educación Física: una intervención didáctica durante la pandemia

Abstract

The objective of this research is to know how the application of multiple intelligences, as a teaching strategy, affects the development of cognitive-motor skills and socio-affective attitudes in the subject of Physical Education during the pandemic. The approach of this study was quantitative-qualitative, with an experimental design. For this, a training workshop on multiple intelligences was proposed and applied, as a learning strategy, to a seventh grade Physical Education teacher in a private institution in the city of Quito, implementing this knowledge in parallel A classes as an experimental group. In the evaluation, it was observed that there is a better level of learning in this experimental group, compared to the control group. As a conclusion, it should be noted that Physical Education teachers should include multiple intelligences as a learning strategy in planning and evaluations due to the improvement in educational processes. This proposal allows cooperative work, integration and inclusion, in addition, it favors the rhythm and way of learning of students through the execution of cognitive, social, affective and motor activities. These intelligences improve learning and generate in students the autonomy of physical activity for life, in practice.
