learning preferences

I have multiple intelligence types including

visual-spatial, musical and interpersonal

THIS MEANS THAT I recognize patterns and interpret charts and graphics well; I am good in thinking in terms of rythyms and sounds and have a strong appreciation of music; I am able to easily interact with people verbally and am good at understanding people’s emotions, feelings and motivations

MOTIVATIONs

I am motivated to learn through intrinsic motivation

THIS MEANS THAT I am more motivated to learn when I am achieving a goal I have set for myself rather than by receiving external rewards like prizes and grades

MY STRONGEST LEARNING SKILLS ARE

sustained attention, planning /prioritization

THIS MEANS THAT

I am able to focus on a task for a specific period of time without being distracted, tired or bored. I am good at creating plans to complete specific tasks. This may be because the prefrontal cortex or front part of my brain is quite developed.

THE SKILLS MOST CHALLENGING FOR ME ARE

self regulation, task initiation

THIS MEANS THAT
it may be hard for me to think before I act or manage my emotions in order to complete specific tasks. This may be because the amygdala in my brain which controls my emotions may be still developing. It may be difficult for me to start tasks on my own without the support of others. This may be related to a fear of not being able to do a good job on the task.

LEARNING IS EASIER FOR ME WHEN I AM ABLE TO

take breaks when needed
have extra time to complete tests and assignments
use an audio to express my idea

some of my goals are

to become less nervous about taking tests
to use a calendar regularly
to make learning choices on my own
to participate more in class discussions

STRATEGIES THAT MAY HELP MEET MY NEEDS AND ACHIEVE MY GOALS ARE

using headphones to listen to calming nature sounds while studying for a test or working on a big assignment.
asking my teacher to demonstrate the hardest part of the task before getting started
using a timer on my phone to remember to take regular breaks
having opportunities to talk about my interests or topics I’m familiar with in class discussions

I would like to continue with the student missions in level 3 to help me achieve my goals.
