Aim and Background: Learning mathematics is difficult for ordinary students, and thus, twice as difficult for students with mathematics learning disability (MLD). Therefore, the purpose of this study was to study the effectiveness of training based on Gardner’s multiple intelligences on the performance of female students in third grade primary schools with MLD. Methods and Materials: The research method was experimental with pretest-posttest and control group. The research population included all female third grade primary students with MLD in Isfahan, Iran. From among them, 42 subjects were selected through cluster sampling and were assigned to intervention and control groups. Then, the intervention group was divided into 8 groups. The intervention groups received 6 sessions of Gardner’s multiple intelligence training (60-minutes each) and the control group participants were on the waiting list. The data collection tool was a teacher-constructed mathematical test (Multiplication operation). The data were analyzed using ANCOVA. Findings: Results showed significant differences between the mean math score of the intervention and control groups in the posttest and the follow-up (P < 0.001). The mean score of the intervention groups was significantly higher than the control group. Conclusions: According to the results, it can be concluded that mathematics education based on Gardner's multiple intelligences can be effective on the academic performance of students.
