Abstract:
This study aimed to investigate and analyse the activities of ‘My English Book’ of the first-year middle school in the light of the Multiple Intelligences Theory MIT. The purpose of the study was to find out the extent to which My Book of English for the First Middle School incorporated MIT using content analysis. The sample of the study included the student textbook of the first grade in the middle school and twenty-one teachers who work with this book (Thirteen male and eight female EFL teachers from different middle schools). The results revealed that although the minister of education tried to incorporate the various recent teaching and learning theories and approaches, no reference was made to MIT.
