Chapter ten discusses the many different forms of assessments with multiple intelligences. The best way to assess a student’s strongest intelligence is by documenting them over their years in school. These documentations can range from a variety of things. Teachers may document students by video taping them, recording them, keeping portfolios of the student’s work, and many more. There are some institutes out there that use different assessments. One of these institutes is the Key Learning Community. The Key Learning Community is a K-12 school that video tapes each student twice a year for all twelve years of their school career. The other examples of institutes and programs that were discussed in this chapter were project spectrum, PIFS, and arts PROPEL.
This chapter was extremely informative when it came to talking about assessments. The information, charts, and examples that this chapter provided was extremely useful in proving how important assessing all of the eight intelligences is. Teachers can easily assess students by giving them the simple assignment of writing a paper, but what will the students learn from that? The different programs and institutions that were discussed in this chapter are proof that assessing all of the eight intelligences is critical and most beneficial for all of the students.
