On the same note, if my workplace involves physical labor, I won't quite be able to cope as well as some others. I would rather sit down with some coworkers and work out what needs to be done than run around and figure it out as I go along.
Theses assessments of my personal strengths and weaknesses beggars the question: How can I use this test to make me a better manager? The answer is obvious, work on my weaknesses. As a manager I will have to understand and work well with my coworkers, and in that department I am certainly competent. However in order to be a completely competent manager I'll have to learn to be physical, and more able to visualize plans and ideas.
The answer to becoming more physical is an obvious one: learn to work with my hands. On the workplace I'll have to be able to fix things, or maybe work with models or equipment. As a manager I need to be able to teach others to fix things, so I'll take a few classes in woodworking, or even an auto shop class.
Visualizing plans and being able to articulate them is another problem I have, at least according to this assessment. The visual aspect of a job affects everything, after all our most acute sense is our sense of sight. Which...
Imagine if I was working in an office, and a coworker drew up a brand new product idea. If I couldn't understand it I would be up a creek without a paddle, so in order to learn as best as I can to visualize things I can begin to doodle more. Drawing up pictures of things, learning about perspective and shapes, and understanding how things are pictured in people's minds will certainly help me learn to visualize problems.

It has taught me that I still have things to learn, and that I have the ability to overcome problems as I am beset with them. I have learned that I am good at listening to people, and that I know how to work with people.
One has to wonder though, if the discrepancies between my self-image and the test results are the result of a flawed self-image or flaws in the test itself. In any regards the self-improvement that will come from this test makes up for any flaws, real or perceived.

1983, Howard Gardner challenged conventional views of teaching and learning styles with his book, Frames of Mind. Gardner hypothesized that the skill-sets of different people are directly correlated to their learning styles. It was from this that he developed the theory of multiple intelligences. Within this theory there are seven intelligences, linguistic intelligence, musical intelligence, logical-mathematical intelligence, spatial intelligence, bodily-kinesthetic intelligence, and what are known as intra and inter-personnel
Learning and Assessment Basics In a regular education classroom, eighth grade learners can be difficult to work with. That is largely because they are starting to develop more than they have in the past - not just physically, but mentally and emotionally, as well. With that in mind, teachers who work with eighth grade learners must be aware of what these students want and need in their learning experience (Pellegrino, Chudowsky,

Watching videos. Color coding words and researching notes. Outlining reading. Using flashcards. Using highlighters, circle words and underlining (Fleming, 2010). If one focuses more on illustrative or graphical knowledge than on the expressions of what is being taught, they put themselves at a distinctive weakness since verbal and written knowledge is still the chief favored option for delivery of knowledge. One should apply their note taking and try to find occasions to make clear information
