Before Bloomsburg, I lived in… Williamsport, PA

At Bloomsburg, I want to major in… Education

Right now, I’m most interested in… Trying to live a good life

My favorite musical artist is…. Boyce Avenue

My favorite movie is…. Braveheart

One thing I like to do in my spare time is… Play Soccer

When it comes to technology, I’m most comfortable with…(put X next to all that apply)

Microsoft Word X   Microsoft Powerpoint X    Email X    Cellphone X    Text messaging X    Taking cellphone pictures X    Taking cellphone video Taking cellphone audio Video editing Blogging or Social Networking (e.g., Facebook) X   Making websites

My favorite teachers were the ones who… Were passionate about what they did.

But I didn’t like classes in which… They made us do only book work.

In this class, I’m most nervous about… The technology.

In this class, I’m most excited about… Learning about different perspectives on writing. he

**//<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 11pt;">The seventh genre was taken from the Crucible. What this section of reading depicts, is just that the witch trials were based on lies and not the truth. //** The eight genre is a short story. It is told in first person about a little girl, who did what the people told her to do. That was to confess that she was a witch. She did so, and thought she was going home. Instead, she locked away in prison, away from her mommy.

The ninth genre is a poem. What it is about is about Georgy Porgey who is wrongly accused of being a witch. Because of that, she was hung wrongfully, even though people knew she was not a witch.

The tenth genre is about a woman who lived during the time of the witch trial. It was an autobiography. She knows that the trials where based on lies. And there is great disgruntlness between the people that were part of the trials, and her.

The eleventh genre is a letter. This woman is wrongly accused of being a witch. And now she is paying the ultimate price for being accused.

Post your answers in the discussion forum on your personal page (hint: you can copy and paste this question into a post)

In terms of teaching Shelby how to play ping, I believe that genre, audience and purpose played a hugh part in how I presented my stuff. My purpose for Shelby was to try and inform her about the simple rules of how to play ping pong. My audience was her, which made this much less formal, and more relaxed in the process. And my genre was basically sports. It was about teaching the rules of sports, so it falls under the genre. In terms of the healthiest meal plan, there also was the same kind of concepts. For genre, I would classify as like informative, like something that you would find on the food network, or something of that sort. In terms of audience, my audience was more formal, and more sturctured. And in terms of purpose, my idea was to inform people about what is the healthiest meal.

9/5/10 Teaching Someone to Play Ping-Pong --To what learning styles does the lesson you were trying to teach seem to appeal (for instance, shooting baskets might appeal most to Kinesthetic and Interpersonal intelligences)? So one thing that I tried to teach was that I was trying to teach my friend Shelby how to play ping-pong. The style of intelligence that I had tried to use was kinesthetic. The reason was because ping-pong is a sport and kinesthetic has to deal with sports. --In terms of multiple intelligences, what were the strengths and struggles of the person you were trying to teach? How did this help or hinder your efforts? The problem was that Shelby was able to learn with kinesthetic intelligence. She does not learn that way. She is more of a interpersonal intelligence. So while I was trying to teach her how to play, she got really frusturated and did not want to keep playing. However, I insisted that we keep playing, and sure enough, with a little bit of time, she started to understand the game and it was epic to watch. --What evidence did you have that the person had learned the lesson? In terms of multiple intelligences, what form(s) did that evidence take? What I was saw was that Shelby was playing by the rules. She was hitting the ball with great consistancy, and she was enjoying herself. With that she did very well, and I was very proud.

As I look back on the learning styly profiles, I can see how they came up with the results that they did. My highest score told me I am a interpersonal type of guy. My thought is that I would have to agree with that. Since my freshman year of high school, I have been able to interact with peopole on different levels. It did not matter who they were or where they came from, I could interact with them, and be able to connect on a personal level. This little excercise that we did was a good way to open my eyes to see what my strong points of learning are, and what are my weak points. All in all it was just a nice way to learn more about myself and the way that I think and learn in everyday life.

Done taking the survey? Now read the explanation below
 Intelligence is often considered to be how well you score on tests or what your grades are in school. In the 1900s, French psychologist Alfred Binet tried to come up with some kind of measure that would predict the success of failure of children in the primary grades of school. The result was the forerunner of the standards IQ test we use today. This gave us a dimension of mental ability by which we could compare everyone.
 * Multiple Intelligences (back to top)**

In the 1980s, Harvard University psychologist, Howard Gardner conceived a pluralistic view of the mind, and recognized the many discrete facets of cognition. Gardner defines intelligence as the ability to solve problems or to fashion products that are valued in one or more cultural settings. He acknowledges that people have different cognitive strengths as well as different cognitive styles. Gardner bases his view in part on findings from sciences that were nonexistent in Binet’s time. One involves studying what people are capable of who have sustained localized brain damage to certain cognitive centers. Out of this came Gardner’s “theory of multiple intelligences.” Instead of looking for a correlation between tests, he argues, we should look to how people develop skills that are pertinent in their culture. When a child learns to play the piano, s/he is learning several skills. Will the training s/he received learning the piano skills enhance mathematics skills, or vice versa? The standard IQ test measures how intelligent a person is in traditional areas involving math and language. All other areas that a person may excel at or have natural ability in are not taken into consideration. Each individual is unique. We all have different physical features—we are not all blue-eyed, brown-haired, six-foot tall men; we each have different personalities—some are jokesters and comedians while others are quiet, reserved, and serious; likewise, we all have our own set of talents, gifts, and abilities. Not everyone will excel in math and language. Why should we compare how smart children are or how successful they will be based on a test that measures only two aspects of who they are?

Gardner has identified eight intelligences. These areas in a culture are valued as abilities to solve a problem or create a particular product. The intelligences are like talents and gifts in that there are many combinations possible; indeed, all people have all of these qualities to some degree. Intelligences can also be strengthened. How readily the improvement occurs depends upon the biology of the person’s brain and the teacher/cultural context.

Style 1: Linguistic – the ability to use language to describe events, to build trust and rapport, to develop logical arguments and use rhetoric, or to be expressive and metaphoric.

Style 2: Logical/mathematical – the ability to use numbers to compute and describe, to use mathematical concepts to make conjectures, to apply mathematics in personal daily life, to apply mathematics to data and construct arguments, to be sensitive to the patterns, symmetry, logic, and aesthetics of mathematics, and to solve problems in design and modeling.

Style 3: Spatial – the ability to perceive and represent the visual-spatial world accurately, to arrange color, line, shape, form, and space to meet the needs of others, to interpret and graphically represent visual or spatial ideas, to transform visual or spatial ideas into imaginative and expressive creations.

Style 4: Bodily-Kinesthetic – the ability to use the body and tools to take effective action, to construct or repair, to build rapport, to console, to persuade, or to support others; to plan strategically or to critique the actions of the body, to appreciate the aesthetics of the body and to use those values to create new forms of expression.

Style 5: Musical – the ability to understand and develop musical technique, to respond emotionally to music and to use music to meet the needs of others, to interpret musical forms and ideas, and to create imaginative and expressive performances and compositions.

Style 6: Interpersonal – the ability to organize people and to communicate clearly what needs to be done, to use empathy to help others and solve problems, to discriminate and interpret among different kinds of interpersonal clues, and to influence and inspire others to work toward a common goal.

Style 7: Intrapersonal – the ability to assess one’s own strengths, weaknesses, talents, and interests and to use them to set goals, to understand oneself and to be of service to others, to form and develop concepts and theories based on examination of oneself, and to reflect on one’s inner moods, intuitions, and temperament in order to use them to create or express a personal view.

Style 8: Naturalist – the ability to recognize and classify plants, minerals, and animals, including rocks, grass, and all variety of flora and fauna, and to recognize patterns and cultural artifacts.
