I rated high in Kinaesthetic and Visual in the multiple intelligences test (Birmingham Grid for Learning). This is no surprise to me as I love my sport and being a "hands on" learner. Also visual, I see things visually - if someone explains something to me I see it visually in my head to comprehend it.
When I done the Mulitple Intelligences test a few times and both had varied results - but that was mainly with the Kinaesthetic and Visual - either way they were both high. I flutuated between linguistic and logical as well, however intrapersonal stayed slightly above the interpersonal.
Knowing this information, I would incorprate a range of actvities within my learning design by: Incorporating short physical activities & changing environments; incorporate individual and group work; use a range of visual aids such as diagrams, mapping, charts, digital media & sound; include video and interatcive computer games to support learning.
Within this learning design I would encourage a lot of participation/involvement from the students to hold some responsability, make them a part of the lesson and work around their needs and or interests and bring it back to the lesson.
I am always trying to include a range of activities within my current situation of teaching 15-17 year olds who were disengaging at schools and have joined the program I run to assist them into employment, further training or reengaging back into schools.
ICTs will play a big part in their learning as it is more how this generation communicates and engages in. I am excited about designing the learning that incorporates more ICTs.
This is my latest result of the test.
