This research aims to investigate the effectiveness of a program based on multiple intelligences in academic achievement in a sample of people with hearing disabilities about time-related concepts. To achieve this goal, the researchers studied literature listing its variables including: experimental treatment (multi-intelligences-based program) as an independent variable, and academic achievement having to do with the concept of time as a dependent variable. The researchers also defined the chapter's objectives in the physics subject which has been designed for people with hearing disabilities in the fourth semester in special-education centers. Activities targeting multiple intelligences in the research sample. The sample is made up of 14 learners with hearing disabilities in the care center for the hearing impaired in Monastir. They were divided into two harmonious groups of 7: One experimental group to which the educational program based on multiple intelligences will be introduced (7) and one control group with the same disability where harmony among members of the sample was achieved. Data collecting techniques included the program based on multiple intelligences and a test of academic achievement. Application of the program lasted 3 months, two sessions a day; one for the experimental group and one for the control group. Results of the study explored the effectiveness of a multi intelligences program in the development of time-related concepts for the experimental group. Results were explained in light of the theoretical framework and previous studies and recommendations were given for future studies. (Published abstract)
