Multiple Intelligence

After taking the Multiple Intelligences Test, I really didn’t learn anything I did not already know. My top three intelligences are Language, Spatial, and Self.

 

Language

I have always been a reader, a writer, and a story-teller. I learn very well from researching and writing reports.

Spatial

I am a very visual learner. Charts, graphs, and maps are some of my favorite learning resources. I use color to sort out ideas, and keep them organized.

Self

I can work in groups, but I much prefer working by myself. My thinking is much clearer when I am not being distracted by other people. I do keep writing journals, and I always take time to review my ideas that I write in my journal.

The Ideal Learning Environment

For me, the ideal learning environment would be one where there is no lecture. Instead, the teacher could display the information on the board or via a video. Audio is the least effective form of instruction for me, so eliminating from my learning environment will make things much easier on me. I think that writing assignments, and solo projects would be the best way to assess my grasp of the information. I learn more when I am gathering the information myself, rather than being given it by the teacher.
