Today we discussed Howard Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences. You took a quiz to determine which type of learning style you have. In a 7-8 sentence response, discuss what type or types of intelligences you tested the highest on.
Do you think this is an accurate depiction of your learning style? Why or why not?
What types of activities do you think you are good at that reflect your learning style?
Do these results influence what job you may want to pursue in adulthood?

I am a kinesthetic learner. I think this is acuurate because I am active annd love hands on activities. I want to be an artisan when i grow up. Artisan is on one of the best jobs list for kinesthetic learner.Artisan is my dream jobs because i want to customize cars for a living. I also tested high on mthmatical learning. That fits my other dream job. That job is an engineer. I realy want to design boats.
On my multiple intelligence test I discovered I am an intrapersonal learner and a naturalist. I think both of these are spot on with my learning style. I believe this because intrapersonal people try to understand their own thoughts, emotions, and things about themselves and I am constantly thinking about my thought process, reasons for my emotions, and more. The reason I think being a naturalist is a good depiction of my learning style is because I have always been into nature. That is how I learn the best, and where my areas of interest are.
Activities I am good at that show that this is my learning style are writing about past experiences and depicting radar images.
These results definetly influence a job I may want to pursue in adulthood. I have had it narrowed down to either a meteorologist or a physchatrist.
I am a verbal learner. I think this is accurate because I like to make and tell storys. I want to be a author because I enjoy storys and I want to make things that people enjoy. I really like crossword puzzles. Reading is one of my favorite after school activetes. If I can't be a writer I well still do it in my spare time whin I grow up. This is wiy I think I'm a verbal learner.

Today in Howard Gardner's Theory of Multiple Inteligences quiz I got the highest on musical intelligence. I think that this is an accurate depiction of my learning style because I pretty much memorize the music I hear. One type of activity that I think I am good at is singing. Another is memorizing, which was helpful in acting. I have no clue what I want to do as an adult. I'm not sure if it influences me to want to go into music. I think I might want to work with animals when I grow up.
The highest I scored was on interpersonal strength. No, I do not believe it is my learning style, which is existentential because I focus more on facts than emotions. My favorite subject is social studies because, history is fascinating and important as a way to advance politics and technology, which is needed for a prior foundation. Attempts at a job will be based on technology, most likely.
Engineering is a passion for my job because, I am obviously aware of my desire to technology advance for a world where entertainment, efficiency, larbourless and small are accomplished to suit every second. Imagine, two hundred years ago entertainment was simple horse races, and now there is high definition television with every type of entertainment, and interactive ones too. After all, I am extraordinarily amazed by the advancement of man in the last ten thousand years, Thomas Edison even invented 1,093 inventions.
I did the best in sections 1 and 9, which makes sense. I mostly enjoy school projects that involve animals and the environment, and I've loved animals since I was six; hence, Naturalist. Also, I'm good at puzzles, reading, drawing, fixing, and pretty much everything mentioned under Visual. So yeah, I'm a Visual Naturalist. This is seriously causing me to consider jobs-these two intelligences could make me an engineer, an explorer, a painter, an artist for if Joe starts writing, a biologist...
I noticed from the multiple intelligences quiz that im a intrapersonal learner. I dont complety agree with my results. I would agree more with the logical type. One reason i dont think im a intrapersonal learner is because during activities like this i have a hard time thinking about myself. My results also dont affect my ideas of what job I want when I get older.
