ANALYSIS
Answer the following questions:
1. Do you agree with the results of your learning style test? Why or why not?

 _Activity 2 : A Multiple Intelligences Checklist
The following Multiple Intelligences Checklist for EFL students is adapted from an
article by Mary Ann Christison published in the MEXTESOL (Mexican branch of the
American Teachers Of English To Speakers Of Other Languages) Journal. When the
original article was published, only seven intelligence types had been identified. More
recently, the naturalist intelligence has been added to the list and the checklist has
been rewritten to take this into account.

Rank each statement 0, 1, or 2. Write 0 if you disagree with the statement and write 2 if
you strongly agree. Write 1 if you are somewhere in between. Then calculate your score
for each intelligence type.

ANALYSIS
1. Do you agree with the results of your multiple intelligence test? Why or why not?

yes, because some of the questions relates in my background.

2. Now that you were able to identify your dominant type of intelligence. How are you going to
maximize the type of intelligence you possess for you to develop as a learner?

As a learner if my intelligence was not fully I will going to prepare myself by doing self-study to
enhance my ideas.
