My learning style

My motivation style is Intrinsic. I don't usually want to fall behind or get bad grades in any subject so I make myself study or do what I need to understand the subject. Although I say my style is instrinsic, extrinsic is still nice. I think I learn better when I have visuals and notes. Writing something over and over again helps me remember. My M.I results: My highest score was in the musical category. The second highest score was tied between Interpersonal and Kinesthetic. This surprised me because, I was expecting to get something else. I thought maybe my verbal or visual strength would have been higher than the musical strength.

    We share the same motivation drive: intrinsic. I think if it comes from the inside one is more likely to go through with it right?

    I learn the same way. I like to use different colored pens to help me when I am studying for a test.
    I think you're right about the extrinsic motivation. Even people who are intrinsically motivated like to be acknowledged by their peers.

    I am the same exact way whenever it comes to my motivation style. I cannot deal with knowing that I got a bad grade on something whenever I know the potential that I have to excel at whatever it is. Having an intristic motivation style, we can always count on ourselves to create that drive and keep pushing on until we succeed! We don't necessarliy have to rely on others and need others appraisal or motivation in order to reach a goal.
