What makes a good learner?

• How Do We Learn Best?
We arrive at school every day, greet our
  friends, unpack our bags and get ready for a
  day of new learning opportunities.
• Well that’s why we come to school isn’t it?
True, but learning is not the same for everyone. In a class of 28
        students there will be 28 different learners.
         Schools today recognise that every child has unique learning
        needs.
        Understanding the needs of each child determines how the class
        will function.




There are several different styles of intelligences
and we possess them all in varying degrees. By
taking a test we were able to create a graph which
helped us to understand our preferred ways of
learning. We discovered that we could use this
understanding to recognize and share our
strengths with others in the classroom. We were
surprised to find out that with practice, we could
actually improve our less dominant intelligences
• Linguistic intelligence involves sensitivity to spoken and written
  language, the ability to learn languages, and the capacity to use
  language to accomplish certain goals. This intelligence includes the
  ability to effectively use language to express oneself rhetorically or
  poetically; and language as a means to remember information. (
  Writers, poets, lawyers and speakers)
• Logical-mathematical intelligence consists of the capacity to
  analyze problems logically, carry out mathematical operations, and
  investigate issues scientifically. In Howard Gardner's words, it
  entails the ability to detect patterns, reason deductively and think
  logically. This intelligence is most often associated with scientific
  and mathematical thinking.
• Musical intelligence involves skill in the performance, composition,
  and appreciation of musical patterns. It encompasses the capacity
  to recognize and compose musical pitches, tones, and rhythms.
  According to Howard Gardner musical intelligence runs in an almost
  structural parallel to linguistic intelligence.
• Bodily-kinesthetic intelligence entails the potential of using one's
  whole body or parts of the body to solve problems. It is the ability
  to use mental abilities to coordinate bodily movements. Howard
  Gardner sees mental and physical activity as related.
• Spatial intelligence involves the potential to recognize and use the
  patterns of wide space and more confined areas.
• Interpersonal intelligence is concerned with the capacity to
  understand the intentions, motivations and desires of other people.
  It allows people to work effectively with others.
  Educators, salespeople, religious and political leaders and
  counsellors all need a well-developed interpersonal intelligence.
• Intrapersonal intelligence entails the capacity to understand
  oneself, to appreciate one's feelings, fears and motivations. In
  Howard Gardner's view it involves having an effective working
  model of ourselves, and to be able to use such information to
  regulate our lives.
