- Abstract
The general vision of higher education is to develop educated people with noble character, who are intelligent and competent to develop a dignified and highly competitive nation. Thus, an educator should consider multiple intelligences to cater the differing abilities of the students. This study aimed to uncover generic competency of pre-service elementary school teacher (PEST) in the Province of Riau based on multiple intelligences theory to examine if differences of ethnicity, place of study, and interaction pattern of PEST had any influence on their multiple intelligences. This research employed a survey study. A total of 150 PEST from two state universities in Riau province were involved as the samples of this study. The survey instrument of multiple intelligences (MIT) was developed and tested, and yielded the high Cronbach alpha reliability value of 0.85. Data analysis revealed that there were no significant differences in scores of ethnicity and university on PEST multiple intelligences. In terms of interaction, there was also no significant effect of interaction between ethnicity and university on PEST multiple intelligences in both universities.
