According to the online learning style quiz (learning-styles-online.com), I am rated almost equally as a verbal, social and aural learner- with aural being the highest. My scores are much lower when it comes to being a visual, logical and physical learner! In contrast to being a social learner, I also have a medium score as a solitary learner!

Highest Score: Aural (Auditory musical)-I prefer using sound and music.
Lowest Score: Logical (mathematical)-Logic, reasoning and systems.

I think this online quiz would be useful in a classroom context. Even though it may not be 100% accurate, it is beneficial in expressing to teachers and students that there is not just one learning style and also encourages a wider view of what intelligence is.
Multiple learning style and Intellegence theory highlights the need to provide a variety of learning tasks and also the importance of differential instruction. Students, for example, can be provided with a choice of tasks to show learning. Rotations and or stations are an effective way to cater for a diverse classroom.
Using Multiple Intelligences theory in the classroom has many benefits:

• As a teacher and learner you realize that there are many ways to be "smart"
• All forms of intelligence are equally celebrated.
• By having students create work that is displayed to parents and other members of the community, your school could see more parent and community involvement.
• A sense of increased self-worth may be seen as students build on their strengths and work towards becoming an expert in certain areas
• Students may develop strong problem solving skills that they can use real life situations

In order for multiple intelligence and learning style profiles to be beneficial, more than one test should be provided, the teacher and student should stay open to other possibilities in personal learning style and approaches, and learning style and multi intelligence should also be further explained to students.

When used appropriately, however, the ability for this theory to lift student confidence and sense of belonging is very appealing to me.
