This paper investigates the extent to which the multiple intelligences theory is applied in the Algerian EFL classroom. An English language textbook, “At the Crossroads", was evaluated and teachers’ knowledge and application of the theory were also analyzed. The aims of this research were achieved through a survey (which investigated teachers’ use of MI) and a textbook evaluation tool designed and used to analyze “At the Crossroads” in relation to the multiple intelligences theory. The findings showed that “At the Crossroads” caters basically for only two intelligences: the verbal/linguistic and the logical/mathematical. The results showed also that most Algerian teachers are not acquainted with the multiple intelligences theory and the researcher recommends, therefore, that teachers must receive more training on the application of MIT to meet learners’ diverse needs.
