Multiple intelligences refer to a set of skills, which allows individuals to find answers to problems they face. Multiple intelligences theory proposed that individuals have multiple human abilities or multiple intelligences based on a set of eight criteria or intelligences. In order to ensure that students develop multiple intelligences in the classroom, the teacher should continually shift the method of presentation from linguistic to spatial to musical and so on, often combining intelligences in creative way. To achieve multiple skill formation in the biology classroom, there is need to use a virile instructional approach that can engage students actively during the learning process and help them to develop multiple intelligences. The Four Mode Application Techniques (4MAT) has been identified one such teaching technique. This study investigated the effect of the 4MAT on the multiple Intelligence score of biology students with different learning styles generally and also on male and female students with different learning styles. The finding of the study showed that all students with different learning styles taught biology using 4MAT had higher multiple intelligence score than their counterparts taught using the conventional method
