Multiple intelligences theory is something I've become interested in over the past couple of years. While teaching at a small private Montessori/Classical school, I was exposed to this theory and its ramifications for effective teaching. Today, while working on an assignment for my U. of Phoenix class, I was researching the MI theory and came upon this online assessment tool so you can determine for yourself what your own learning style is. It's a useful exercise; when you click the link, scroll down past the "user number" box and enter your information down at the bottom of the page. There are 80 questions, each one appearing by itself so you aren't distracted by other questions. It doesn't take very long and gives a pretty accurate picture of -- not how smart you are -- but -- how you are smart.
My results?
Music -- 50 (highest possible)
Intrapersonal -- 42
Visual/Spatial -- 39
Linguistic -- 34
Body/Kinesthetic -- 28
Naturalistic -- 25
Mathematics -- 23
Interpersonal -- 21
