Learning Style Reflections:

My Multiple Intelligences Survey Results:




My results show things I already know about myself. I'm terrible with numbers. I can barely count. I do think however my Nature-Smart is abnormally low because I answered that I don't like learning outside. Being outdoors is super distracting. I prefer to learn about it, then go an experience it. Its hard to take in all of a new experience when I'm surrounded by it, at least for me. I believe I'm also more people smart than this graph reads. I generally don't buy these graphs as accurate, and hate when people read into them. My greatest weakness is by far my inability to incorporate visuals, yet interestingly enough... I learn visually. I like to use words to express ideas and feel this is how I best convey my point.

My Learning Style Survey Results:



I notice in this survey that I (rightfully so) side more on the reflective side. It will be a challenge for me to involve some type of movement in the classroom to engage students. I also side on the Intuitive section of the second line. This is why I like college lectures so much. I would need to be slightly more engaging in my future classroom. Teaching from what I can tell isn't about how you learn, but how the students learn. I find myself to be true on this graph. On this graph I find myself never landing in the middle. I'm always skewed to one side. This is both advantageous and disadvantageous. My proficiencies will shine however my deficiencies will also be more evident. I will have to work hard to walk a middle course to make sure no one is left out.

Overall I think these are pretty good representations of me in every day life. As mentioned, I'm not the kind of person that lends a lot of belief to these graphs. People are far to diverse and complicated to be summed up in forty questions. Similarly I don't believe administrating one of these to students could be definitive, young people are eternally changing and forging who they are. The best is to offer a wide variety to satisfy all tastes. That is, of course, an opinion. I'm not sure of it's correctness, but I think I'm on the right path.
