How Do I Learn?
How do I learn? I think I learn best by visual, auditory, and hands on methods. I think when I see, listen, and engage in an activity I learn, versus just memorizing a particular method, skill or facts. I think when a make a connection, for example with a particular event, method, or skill I can say I am more likely to own the information, and will reference it again. For example, when I take a class online, I only memorize or use that the information for that particular class, and I honestly can say I really do not remember much of it unless I refresh on it again, but when I attend class in person, and write, hear, engage, and see new information four differently ways I usually remember it or say learn.
My Multiple Intelligences Results:
Highest score: Suggest I have intrapersonal strength
Middle scores: Logical and Existential strength
Lowest scores: Naturalist strength and Musical strength
I think I am a well rounded person, who values family and one that has a passion for learning and that is also eager to share with others.
Motivation:
Intrinsic motivation is what keeps me wanting more. I am moved by internal drive, thus I am moved by things I really believe in. I usually follow my gut feelings about things if I feel something is not right. I am moved and want to learn or read more about things that I am interested in.
