This study attempts to develop an education program of self-leadership strategies for intrapersonal intelligence components to enhance intrapersonal intelligence in adolescence. It aims to apply an instrumental plan of NLP coaching techniques, and to verify long-term effects as well as short-term effects supported by smartphone applications.
To achieve this purpose, following research questions were established.
1. With what contents, strategies and procedures can smart learning-based intrapersonal intelligence enhancement program using NLP coaching techniques be constructed and developed?
2. Does the smart-learning based intrapersonal intelligence enhancement program have effect on intrapersonal intelligence enhancement?
The contents according to the research questions are broadly divided into program development and effect verification. First, for the program development, an intrapersonal intelligence enhancement program was developed, and based on the model, by ADDIE procedures, ‘An Intrapersonal Intelligence Enhancement NLP Program’ was developed. The program was executed for college students at late adolescence over 10 class hours for 2 months, and to maximize learning effects through motivations for learners, an intrapersonal intelligence application was developed and distributed. To verify the effects of the program, ANCOVA was carried out. Main research results confirmed through this study are as follows:
First, the Intrapersonal Intelligence NLP Program developed in this study was based on a model according to systematic teaching design and designed through an appropriate development process. Basic components of the program of ‘self-understanding’, ‘self-design’ and ‘self-control’ were selected by reflecting the results of analysis of preceding research. As a plan to draw out more subdivided targets of performance, self-leadership strategies were applied to sub-factors of each domain. In addition, as a teaching-learning method to draw out detailed performances, NLP coaching was constructed and an application undertaking the functions of Motivation, Adaptability, Transactional cooperation, Eduction (MATE) was used together. The validity of the overall program models and contents formation were confirmed by experts.
Second, the Intrapersonal Intelligence Enhancement Program developed in this study is effective for enhancing intrapersonal intelligence during adolescence. As a result of execution of the intrapersonal intelligence program to an experiment group and carrying out pre, post, follow-up and satisfaction tests, there were high test scores and significant differences between the groups in the overall intrapersonal intelligence and sub-factors. In addition, program satisfaction was 79.0% by which the effects of the intrapersonal intelligence enhancement program were verified.
Based on the above research results, the significances of the Intrapersonal Intelligence Enhancement NLP Program are suggested as follows:
First, through this study, an Intrapersonal Intelligence Enhancement NLP Program was presented. Till now, there have been rare studies prescriptively presenting teaching-learning methods according to the components of intrapersonal intelligence. Thus, this study has a significance in that it devised a model of Intrapersonal Intelligence Enhancement NLP Program and phased and systematized each component.
Second, a program effective for the enhancement of intrapersonal intelligence was developed. Most studies stopped at carrying out post-test at the point of time when a measure was completed in verifying the effects of the program while there was hardly a process of verifying continuous effects. Therefore, it has a significance as a study that verified if the program would have impacts not only immediately after the measure but also afterwards. Like above, ‘the Intrapersonal Intelligence Enhancement Program Using NLP Coaching Technique’ can be efficiently operated and it is expected that it can contribute to establishment of belief and values during adolescence.
