Authors : Boulmaiz Djallel .
Abstract
This study aims at evaluating the incorporation of the principles of the Multiple Intelligences Theory into EFL textbooks. The researcher conducted a comparative analysis to identify the intelligence profiles of two secondary school EFL textbooks, one used in Algeria (‘At the Crossroads’) and the other used in France (‘Fireworks 1re’). The analysis was carried out through the use of a checklist consisting of the eight intelligence types and the findings revealed that the French textbook, ‘Fireworks 1re’, surpasses its Algerian counterpart in terms of developing learners’ multiple intelligences. For this reason, the researcher urges Algerian syllabus designers to take learners’ multiple intelligences into consideration when designing EFL textbooks and recommends that they learn from the experiences of materials designers in other countries.
