Multiple Intelligences


neave

Recommended Posts

I'm currently studying Howard Gardner's 'Multiple Intelligence' Theory, which basically states that intelligence isn't one fixed number or statistic, but is spread across a range of different fields.

 

It's useful in realising this as it shows that childrens' intelligence may lie in other fields and not necessarily in more 'academic' sections.

 

My tutor gave us all a link to a test so we could get our own 'multiple intelligence map' and I thought it'd be quite interesting to share it with you and see what kind of range of intelligences we have here!

I took it, and my main intelligences lie in the linguistic, musical and intrapersonal fields, with my worst performing areas being visual/spatial, logical and naturalistic by some distance.

 

Over to you!

 

Edit: If you want to find out more about your best (or worst)-performing areas, go on this link and click on the sections on the left: http://www.multipleintelligencetheory.co.uk/

The link has a combination of 3 letters which apparently aren't allowed on the board. Something about f and the Pope....

 

Hmm. Quite annoying.

My celebrity 'twins' included Johnny Ball. Worrying.

 

I'm not sure I agree with this 'everyone is good at something' mantra.

 

It's blatantly bollocks.

Not quite as black and white as 'everyone is good at something', more like not everyone is good at the same thing.

 

Obviously there are hunners of intelligence and educational theories, this is just one that certainly isn't perfect, but has some credibility.

 

It's also comforting for the stupit kids. :D

I got to here and had to stop:

 

Math and/or science are among my favorite subjects in school

 

"Math"

 

"are"

 

"Favorite"

 

It's ageist and Americanist bunkum.

I think that means i'm a bit of a inummerate, illiterate, non-communicative solitary soul with an i-pod! Nice.

I'd say that was a fairly accurate picture in terms of the different facets. Obviously you can't compare individual scores with others as people respond to such surveys in very different ways but it's useful enough for showing an individual how he varies(or how he think he varies!) from facet to facet.
