The Multi-Intelligence Test


Howard Gardener developed the theory of multiple intelligences in 1986. He acknowledged that traditional IQ was a limited and unrealistic measurement for the possibilities of the human brain.

Intelligence comes in the form of many possibilities. Missing from this list is also creative intelligence or creative thinking, explored by Ken Robinson a leading education analyst, who notes that it is almost impossible to quantify or record "creativity" in traditional methods.

Anyway, fellow BAPP pupil Charlie shared this Multi-Intelligence Test and as a reflective practitioner who is always in the pursuit of finding out as much as possible, I had to give it a go. So here are my results:

Jess's Multiple IntelligencesWell, this was no surprise. I don't listen to music, I don't even own a tv.  I like being on my own, at one with nature and I have four dogs. I can't do mathematics either.

My full report is here:

But what does this really mean? Hopefully this will give me another perspective on the way in which I approach things, particularly through the BAPP.

What are your thoughts?

Here is the blank questionnaire. What are your stronger multi-intelligences?

The Power of Collaboration

The Power of Collaboration Thank you to Adesola for sharing the YouTube video of Dr. Shelle VanEtten de Sánchez’s talk on the Power of Collaboration:    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VmQVNE-MbKI “What each of us can accomplish on our own will fit in the palm of our hand, but that is insignificant compared to what we can accomplish together.” Some incredibly wise words from Dr Shelle VanEtten de Sánchez and something I have actually been thinking about a lot recently as I have been working on a new creative project.  For the past 6 months I have had an idea. Essentially to write a collection of short plays for children to teach them about Shakespeare and his stories, indirectly and without boring them to death. Over the summer I researched, I wrote, I brainstormed. Come Autumn I presented the idea to the group and it fell flat. It did not work.  Ego bruised and feeling disheartened I knew I was approaching the work completely wrong. So, I to...

Making Links

Image
Ten years ago, in a movement class at the Drama Centre London we were exploring circles, specifically circles of movement. What circles can we create with our bodies? With parts of our bodies, our minds and so forth. The signification came when we realised that life, plays, characters, history, thoughts, are their own circles. Everything in connected and interconnect, they overlap and create wonderful patters that contribute to the creativity and validity of our own circle of life. Circles are constant, donate a sense of movement and express that our life is a constant state of fluidity; as is our thinking. Wednesday's Skype call (which included students from all modules) was a reminder to me that I must keep remembering to link back what I am doing throughout module 3. One student mentioned "Reflection on action" and "Reflection in action" which we learnt about in module 1. This lightbulb moment reminded me of the importance of linking back and bei...

Inspiration Station

Module 3 is nearly over. The artefact, feedback and professional inquiry have been submitted. I am now turning my attention towards my presentation.  Dr Adesola Akinleye has asked us to blog about what has been inspiring us over the festive break. I came across this video entitled: "Why the School System is Outdated" by Gary Vaynerchuk.  I hope that you are able to view this video on the link below: https://www.facebook.com/gary/videos/613787749153202/UzpfSTUwNTE2MTMzMzoxMDE1NjgwMDE0ODYwNjMzNA/ In the video, Gary Vaynerchuk states that " information is a commodity ", so easily available at the palm of our hands, that the global school system is now outdated. We no longer need to memorise information for tests, as we can access it via the internet within seconds. He points out that the fundamental flaw in education actually comes down to parenting, not teaching. He argues that we need an education system focused on promoting happiness for our chi...
