What kind of learner are you?

[merovingian]

Since we've been going back and forth about whether we prefer chicks to clicks and staying in or dropping out of school, here's a new thread to keep the timewasting ball rolling:

What kind of learner are you? (http://www.ldrc.ca/projects/miinventory/miinventory.php)

Me? Why thank you for asking! What's that? You weren't asking? Well you eventually would have, so let's get the obligatory participatory egoboo out of the way:

Linguistic 37
Mathematics 40
Visual/Spatial 40
Body/Kinesthetic 43 (No wonder I'd spend the year on Temptation Island)
Naturalistic 38
Music 39
Interpersonal 32
Intrapersonal 47 (An indie from the get-go)

[Bluecat]

For me the results are:

Linguistic...............33
Mathematics..........43
Visual/Spatial.........27
Body/Kinesthetic.....26
Naturalistic.............32
Music....................26
Interpersonal..........26
Intrapersonal..........38

I haven't really gone in to what all these numbers mean yet.

Oh, I should add that when I did that 'other' test (I can't remember what it was called) I came out INTP/INFP depending on the day.

[Jack Norton]

My results:
Linguistic 31
Mathematics 25
Visual/Spatial 31
Body/Kinesthetic 27
Naturalistic 29
Music 15
Interpersonal 28
Intrapersonal 39

Hmm... crap, something must be broken :P

[GBGames]

Linguistic 35
Mathematics 40
Visual/Spatial 27
Body/Kinesthetic 28
Naturalistic 29
Music 32
Interpersonal 30
Intrapersonal 33

I definitely should concentrate on exercise more.

[Valkilos]

Linguistic 27 (Me dun tawk guud)
Mathematics 33
Visual/Spatial 29
Body/Kinesthetic 34
Naturalistic 23 (stupid trees!)
Music 39
Interpersonal 27
Intrapersonal 38 (really, I'd be shocked if anyone here got less than 30 on this)

I was kinda surprised at some of this stuff - I expected to rate much higher in Math and Visual. The music score caught me off guard, but it makes sense when I think about it; I guess "musical learning" and "musical talent" are fairly unrelated ;)

[Rainer Deyke]

Linguistic 29

I'm surprised at the relatively high linguistic score.

[GBGames]

Linguistic 29

I'm surprised at the relatively high linguistic score.

You mean to say that you were flabbergasted at the superior eminency at which your linguistic abilities were ranked.

[Diragor]

Linguistic=26
Mathematics=38
Visual/Spatial=31
Body/Kinesthetic=27
Naturalistic=34
Music=47
Interpersonal=21
Intrapersonal=37

Not terribly surprising; I've known I'm a musically inclined introvert since at least junior high school. :) I think the linguistic score is a little skewed due to the wording of the questions, but it's probably not too far out of line.

[moonpxi]

Linguistic 31
Mathematics 36
Visual/Spatial 35
Body/Kinesthetic 34
Naturalistic 27
Music 22

I feel a bit like a psyco!! Oh, and I really wish I could have a higher music rating, but I simply suck at it. :(

[Raptisoft]

Awesomeness......... 100
Computer Mastery.... 100
Insufferability........... 100
Manliness................. 100
Sex Appeal............... 100
Heroic Ability............. 100

It's not easy being perfect.

No surprise to anyone; I'm a music major and I'm bad with people.

[Anthony Flack]

Linguistic 30
Mathematics 40
Visual/spatial 29
Body/Kinesthetic 26
Naturalistic 22
Music 49
Interpersonal 27
Intrapersonal 38

Though I'm really not sure about some of the questions. Like, just because I didn't find geometry easier than algebra at school, doesn't mean I thought geometry was hard... they were both easy :)

[ManuTOO]

Linguistic 32
Mathematics 44
Visual/Spatial 33
Body/Kinesthetic 25
Naturalistic 32
Music 24
Interpersonal 23
Intrapersonal 38

the scores depend of own emphasis : I'm not easy to say "that's a lot like me", neither "that's very little like me".
So I guess the meaning is in the comparison of proportions, not of absolute min/max ...

[PoV]

Nooo!! What Happened!!! I'm not real!

Linguistic 0
Mathematics 0
Visual/Spatial 0
Body/Kinesthetic 0
Naturalistic 0
Music 0
Interpersonal 0
Intrapersonal 0

Heh... alright... they've got a funny system that makes you reload the page (or at least they made me).

Linguistic 36
Mathematics 46
Visual/Spatial 42
Body/Kinesthetic 32
Naturalistic 37
Music 47
Interpersonal 24
Intrapersonal 41

Yeah, that music score sounds rather high to me, being more of a drawer than musicer. And with language like that, clearly my Linguistic skill should be lower. :D

[Karukef]

I have to say I suspect this kind of test to be a bit too subjective. For example, it is widely known that less smart people think they are smarter than they are, with a somewhat opposite effect for smarter people again.

When I am asked to rate something from 1-5 I am generally very conservative, while someone else might be very excited in their replies. Since this test do no actual measurement of the scores, I am hard pressed to put much faith in them.

After reading a bit more on the site I get a strong feeling these results, the types we are rated in, are an overly simplistic view on a person as a whole.

When I took that Keirsey Temperament Sorter test, I got an INTJ/ENTP which I could safely say was a very accurate of myself. This test however, gave me scores I disagree with rather distinctly.

Just my 2 cents, I like this kind of stuff :)

[MirekCz]

my score:

Linguistic 30
Mathematics 44
Visual/Spatial 31
Body/Kinesthetic 39
Naturalistic 33
Music 23
Interpersonal 30
Intrapersonal 31

Besides math and body i get pretty low figures. especially my personal figures are scary

[carl]

Linguistic=38
Mathematics=37
Visual/Spatial=17
Body/Kinesthetic=22
Naturalistic=24
Music=25
Interpersonal=31
Intrapersonal=38

Wow, talk about your low scores.

I guess the Visual/Spatial statistic explains why my artistic skills leave something to be desired...

Hmm, I guess that's quite accurate. Not sure about the high maths score though :)

That's a type of learning?

I'm the kind of learner that doesn't have time to wade through 80 questions.

I'm not too terribly surprised the focus is on Linguistic learning. I've always considered the field to be my main interest, whether it be English history, structure, composition, and literature, to learning foreign or computer languages.

[Mark Sheeky]

Hahaa, I was right, you are a complete wanker ;) hehe

Cas :)

I don't know what I've done to deserve that.

It's a joke yer divot! Interpersonal score 15? Geddit?

Ahh hang on, have I been double-joked here?
