Chapter Two Reponse

Chapter Two

Abstract:
This chapter was basically focused on figuring out your own personal mulitple intelligences. This chapter points out the important fact that there are no stronger and weaker intelligences. Everyone has the capibilty to excell in all of the intelligences though not many people choose to develop them all. How intelliegences develop depend on three different factors: biological endowment, personal life history, and culture and historical backround. The most helpful part of this chapter was an inventory that helped adults determine which intelligences they possesed that were most prominent.

Reactions:
We found this chapter particularly important because it helped us determine which intelligences we all possessed. None of us were very suprised by our findings. Katie and Tyler both possessed strong aptitudes toward kinestetic learning which makes sense because they are community health majors. Rich possessed in aptitude toward logical learning which makes perfect sense because he is a math major. Katelyn possessed an aptitude towards linguistic and interpersonal learning with the lowest scores in logical and mathematical which made sense because she never liked math and science in school and always has been very vocal.
