In a classroom there are no two students who learn the exact same way as another, and it is the role of the teacher to understand and cater for this. After much consideration this group assessment task caters for a variety of Gardner’s Multiple Intelligences. It caters for students who are:
• SPATIAL – Visual media (such as required vide footage and images) help students acquire concrete concepts, such as object identification, spatial relationship, or motor skills where words alone are inefficient.
• BODILY/KINESTHETIC – the opportunity to perform in the video task caters to the students who learn best through movement, because they communicate well through body language and be taught through physical activity, hands-on learning, and role playing.
• INTERPRESONAL – this set task gives students the opportunity to work in a group dynamic, where they share, collaborate and contribute to the final outcome
• INTRAPERSONAL – students are required to reflect upon the experience individually, requiring personal reflection, thought and sentiment
• LINGUISTIC –The set task of writing a newspaper article, appeals to the learners who have highly developed auditory skills and often think in words. By catering for the different learning styles, we are able to meet the needs of all our students, and build upon their individual gifts and talents.

very good combination of picture with an article, short explanation of information and good examples. very understandable and useful, thank you very much..:)
This picture is a good way of demonstrating the learning types. learning types are important because a students can learn btter if her/his learning style is known. A teacher can do various activities to address the different types of learning styles. For example; she/he can show pictures about a topic, then can talk about that picture, then can want students to act just like the in the picture or can want them to role according to that picture and go on. Thus, a teacher caters many different types of learning styles.
As I am a visual learner, I liked the way that you give the information with the combination of a picture. It really made it easier for me.
