Chapter 10 MI: MI Theory and Assessment

This tenth chapter in Multiple Intelligences discusses how to apply assessment to the MI theory. The one thing that I really learned from this chapter was the many ways you can see your students’ progress in the classroom, instead of just doing the usual testing process. I personally thought the anecdotal records, work samples, student journals, and calendar records. I also learned that to test the 8 multiple intelligences in the classroom, you literally manipulate the different learning styles to show you through their particular way of learning how they know the material. While I’m in the classroom I’m definitely going to try to use this 8 way assessment for my students, because I know that as a student I would have liked that option.
