For Students
If you're giving this test to a student, explain that:
1. This test will help the student see his strongest intelligences and may help him
consider his abilities in a new way.
2. He should go through each statement and give it a score of zero, one, two, or three
based on the following scale:
1. Zero - This statement does not describe me at all.
2. One - This statement only describes me a little, or only describes me
sometimes.
3. Two - This statement is pretty accurate and describes me, generally speaking.
4. Three - This statement strongly describes me.
For Teachers
If you're giving this test to a student who cannot yet read, interview them and have the
student answer the questions orally. Rather than having them give you numbers, phrase
questions in a way that allows them to agree or disagree. For example, instead of asking
the student to give a one, two, or three, you might say, 'Do you like art class? Tell me a
little about it.' Based on the student's enthusiasm and response, the teacher should give
her best guess as to an appropriate score for that question.
5.
Naturalist - If your score for this intelligence is high, you probably care deeply
about nature, whether your focus is rocks, trees, birds, animals, flowers or even
meteorology. You love to be outdoors, are nurturing and probably like to look after
animals or grow plants. Effective study techniques will encompass projects that
can be tied into the environment or the natural world. This includes using
photographs, drawings, or observations to augment a project.
Practical Applications
Harold Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences goes beyond the traditional models
of learning to explore an individual's unique set of skills and motivations. Theorizing
that these strengths and preferences are linked directly to a person's potential, and
therefore to possible career choices, Gardner felt that educational programs and models
should address all intelligences rather than the verbal-linguistic and mathematical-
logical skills which are primarily highlighted in schools.
Through knowledge of their strengths, each and every student can maximize their
educational opportunities and become motivated and inspired by their choices. Consider
using your intelligences to help you study, pick college courses, and even direct you
into a career you will find satisfying and rewarding.
