Assessment: Find your strengths! http://literacyworks.org/mi/assessment/findyourstrengths.html



This is my result :





Intelligence



Score (5.0 is highest)



Description

Body
4

Body Movement: You like to move, dance, wiggle, walk, and swim. You are likely good at sports, and you have good fine motor skills. You may enjoy taking things apart and putting them back together. Incorporating body movement into your learning will help you process and retain information better. Here are some ideas.

  • Trace letters and words on each other's back.

  • Use magnetic letters, letter blocks, or letters on index cards to spell words.

  • Take a walk while discussing a story or gathering ideas for a story.

  • Make pipe cleaner letters. Form letters out of bread dough. After you shape your letters, bake them and eat them!

  • Use your whole arm (extend without bending your elbow) to write letters and words in the air.

  • Change the place where you write and use different kinds of tools to write, ie., typewriter, computer, blackboard, or large pieces of paper.

  • Write on a mirror with lipstick or soap.

  • Take a walk and read all the words you find during the walk.

  • Handle a Koosh ball or a worry stone during a study session.

  • Take a break and do a cross-lateral walk.

Social
3.86

Social: You like to develop ideas and learn from other people. You like to talk. You have good social skills. Effective techniques of enhancing your learning using your social intelligence include taking part in group discussions or discussing a topic one-to-one with another person. Find ways to build reading and writing exercises into your group activities, such as:

  • Reading a dialogue or a play with other people

  • Doing team learning/investigating projects

  • Setting up interview questions and interviewing your family, and writing down the interview

  • Writing notes to another instead of talking.

Self
3.71

Self: You have a very good sense of self. You like to spend time by yourself and think things over. You will often take in information from another person, mull it over by yourself, and come back to that person later to discuss it. You like working on projects on your own. You often prefer to learn by trial and error. Effective techniques to enhance your learning include keeping a journal and giving yourself time to reflect on new ideas and information. More ideas:

  • Go on "guided imagery" tours.

  • Set aside time to reflect on new ideas and information.

  • Encourage journal writing.

  • Work on the computer.

  • Practice breathing for relaxation.

  • Use brainstorming methods before reading.

  • Listen to and read "how to" tapes and books.

  • Read cookbooks.

Just to sit down and rest awhile... Happy New Year 2010...

"2010 tahun baru...."
Banyak yang perlu direncanakan. Banyak yang perlu dibuat penambahbaikan...
Terlalu banyak anugerah yang dikurniakan dari Illahi... namun terlalu sedikit aku mensyukurinya.

Satu permulaan semester yang baik..
walaupun pada hari pertama kuliah hanya 2 org pelajar yang menghadirkan diri... agaknya para pelajar menguji sejauh mana kesabaran aku :) Namun begitu... lepas kelas, ada di antara mereka yang datang berjumpa. Mohon maaf. Bagus... walaupun ramai yang mengatakan ini adalah trend bila buka semester... Aku hargai pada mereka yang datang dan berjumpa personally dengan pensyarah untuk meminta maaf.

Siapa kita untuk menghukum para pelajar?
Mereka cukup matang untuk menilai baik dan buruk.. Aku gembira dengan sikap segelintir pelajar yang suka dirinya ditegur.

Berkata aku pada diri sendiri...
Yaa.. Tegurlah aku!
Bimbinglah aku!
Bantulah aku!

tak kira mereka adalah pelajar... rakan fakulti, orang yg lebih tua... dan juga pada insan2 yang lebih muda dari aku....

Masa berjalan terlalu pantas.... Usia semakin meningkat....
Aku benar2 mengharapkan... kita akan menjadi lebih matang... lebih bijak dalam mengendalikan masalah yang mendatang...

3 things that we should ask ourself...

1. What are our targets?
2. What are your strategies to achieve the targets?
3. Who are you in 10 years coming?

Manusia ini mempunyai halatuju yang berbagai-bagai dan berbeza-beza bergantunglah, samada mereka terjun di dalam keseronokan dan syahwat dunia ataupun meningkat ciri-ciri keperibadian mereka kepada peribadi yang tinggi.

Sesungguhnya Allah maha mengetahui segalanya....

Hye... What say you?



" HAVE A POSITIVE ATTITUDE
; hang around with positive people, stay away from cry babies and complainers, because they will pull you down to their level. If something isn’t going right in your life, keep it to yourself, no one wants to hear your problems, make people believe you are having a wonderful time - Joe Gerard "


Think... think... and think...
Think and act wisely..
