تطويــــر وحدة في اللغة العربية وفق نظرية العقول الخمسة لجاردنر لتنمية الفهم الاستماعي الإبداعي وقيم الشغف المعرفي لدى طالبات الصف الرابع الابتدائي

This study aimed to enhance creative listening comprehension and the values of epistemic curiosity among fourth-grade female students through the development of an Arabic language unit grounded in Gardner’s Five Minds Theory. The researcher employed a quasi-experimental design featuring two groups: an experimental group and a control group. The research sample consisted of 60 fourth-grade female students. The study included a list of creative listening comprehension skills (fluency, flexibility, originality, and elaboration); a list of epistemic curiosity values (curiosity, lifelong learning, critical thinking, and creativity); and a specially designed Arabic language unit based on Gardner’s Five Minds Theory. The research tools—namely, the Creative Listening Comprehension Test and the Epistemic Curiosity Values Scale—were applied. The study concluded that there was a statistically significant difference at the 0.01 level between the mean scores of the experimental and control groups in the post-test of both the Creative Listening Comprehension Test and the Epistemic Curiosity Values Scale, in favor of the experimental group. Additionally, the study found a statistically significant difference at the 0.01 level between the pre-test and post-test mean scores of the experimental group in both the Creative Listening Comprehension Test and the Epistemic Curiosity Values Scale, in favor of the post-test. These results confirm the effectiveness of the developed unit in enhancing both creative listening comprehension and the values of epistemic curiosity among fourth-grade female students. In light of the research findings, several recommendations and suggestions were presented. The researcher recommended utilizing the developed Creative Listening Comprehension Skills List and the Epistemic Curiosity Values Scale, and emphasized the importance of integrating Gardner’s Five Minds Theory into the teaching and learning of the Arabic language.
