3. Results Assessment (Step 3)
0 I mostly agree with the results I have, though I am confused as to my low
linguistic score, since I took a different multiple intelligence test several
weeks ago a part of an assignment for a different class and it ranked linguistic
as my strongest intelligence. However, I do strongly agree with naturalistic
being my strongest, because I love being outdoors. Just before making this
PowerPoint, I had to wait for my mother to pick me up from school. Rather
than waiting indoors, I went outside to bask in the sun and cool breeze. I even
preferred doing my homework out there than in a stuffy classroom. Logical,
my second highest, was another intelligence I could agree on, since I always
use logical reasoning when making any decision. For example, in order to take
this class at my school, I had to drop another class in order to fit it into my
schedule. The only class I could drop was Show Choir. Though I loved being
there and the experience of it, logic dictated that an AP class would benefit me
better in the long term, despite my friends’ protests. In the end, I knew I made
the logical decision.

Strongest Intelligence:
st
Naturalistic (Nature Smart)
Throughout the course, one of the activities I’ve really enjoyed is working and
assessing case studies, like the unrealistic Billy and the sadly realistic Genie. It’s
something about the one-on-one approach, along with the extensive details you
can get from the method, that appeals to me. Though its not an exact chapter in
the course, I would like more case study projects throughout the course. Also,
along those lines, I would also want to do an
assignment that involves a natural observation study,
where we observe a subject without interfering in its
actions. It find it both intriguing and a challenge,
along with appealing to my naturalistic intelligence.

5. 2nd Strongest Intelligence:
Logical (Number Smart)
One chapter I really liked was the introduction to the different psychological
philosophies (or “schools,” as my old-school uncle, who used to teach
psychology, would say). One way you could integrate logical intelligence
would be an assignment where we are given a list of different cases and must
assess which philosophy, or philosophies, were
being put into action based on their practices and
methods. That way, students can logically identify
and determine the different philosophies in the
course while learning them in a more hands-on
approach. I find this possible lesson plan very
appealing to the logical intelligence.

6. 3rd Strongest Intelligence:
Intrapersonal (Myself Smart)
Another chapter I really liked was the Nature vs. Nurture, especially the Family
Tree Project. With it, I discovered a lot of things about my family I never knew
before (since my parents don’t talk about it often) and found out just how much
those things have influenced not only how I am naturally but also how I was
brought up. This certainly went into the field of intrapersonal intelligence and
made the chapter far more enjoyable for me.
One thing that I think would be interesting
would be an assignment that made us
understand how and why we form
relationships with friends or peers, along
with how nature and nurture influence who
we choose as friends (such as similar
personalities) and how they shape us (such
as peer pressure). http://flindster.com/about/
