Multiply Intelligence

I have done many MI tests over the course of being in the Education department here at WSU. I find them rather inaccurate as I do with personality tests as well. It seems to me after taking these types of tests that the results are never to my expectations. As with this MI test, I found that I was mostly a visual, intrapersonal learner. However, I find once I read something or someone tells me something, I am not swift to forget that bit of information.

Thus, I find Multiply Intelligence testing can be useful, it is nothing to rely upon. Using MI tests in the classroom can be helpful. In a classroom setting, the teacher must know and understand how to teach to a diverse population of learners. Recognizing the differences and similarities between student learner styles is very important. The teacher must use a wide variety of teaching styles when educating their students. That is why I hope to use MI tests in my classroom. I know that I will need as much information about my students as possible. Therefore, know my students' MI test results are a huge step in the right direction to effect teaching strategies.
