Hi Caran!
let me give that question back to you? What do think would be the learning outcome and is the learning outcome always for the student?
Perhaps you learn more about your students?!?!?!
Keep up the good work!

this exercise would definitely extend the limits of each individuals preparation for the class. they would have to rely on each others strengths and weaknesses to accomplish the task.
It doesn't really appeal to the intrapersonal learner. And I agree that the music can be distracting to some students. As far as touching on a wide array of multiple intelligences it does that. But what is the learning outcome?
This activity seems to allude the necessitating of pairing up weaker Intelligence factors with stronger ones to complete the task.
It would be fun to most but some would be stressed unless the group has developed a relationship before hand. It might not help with the intrapersonal intelligence. The naturalistic intelligence is definitely not covered.
Hi Chan!
I totally agree! We have to know each student's needs and learning types. Otherwise, we do students a disservice.
Keep up the good work!

First, fast, fun and frantic would not be that to all people. But according to the text, each type of learner would respond differently. I'm not sure I agree with the use of music in the classroom. many learners find it a huge distraction. Some are so easily distracted that even in an exercise where the class is talking and there is a lot of activity going on, they would find it distracting.
