Assignment 3

I started with the Myers-Briggs test. It was a test to determine my personality traits. After answering the four questions, my results revealed ESFP, which meant extraverted, sensing, feeling, and perceiving. According to the results, my personality is one that is “pragmatic and realistic with a zest for living life to the fullest by way of multiplying experiences.” It also describes how people who are sensing are very attune to their environment. They always enjoy having a good time, and will not allow for things to become too quiet. The feeling traits include team players and project leaders. They have a gift for rallying their team members as well. They believe in harmony, and focus on others. They know people from all walks of life. They try to find ways to correct things, in doing so they look for the most gracious way no matter how uncomfortable the situation could be.

I couldn’t agree with these results more. It was almost creepy reading the results because each one described me perfectly. It was also weird being that exact based only on a series of 4 question. The test is completely accurate. I am the person who knows people from everywhere, and every aspect of life. I always try to keep harmony in my life and in my relationships with others. And I absolutely can’t stand for things to get dull and quiet. I will always do whatever it takes to liven things up.

assignment 3

My personality test told me that
  • Plan many of the details in advance before moving into action.

  • Focus on task-related action; complete meaningful segments before moving on.

  • Work best and avoid stress when able to keep ahead of deadlines.

these were all true, pretty cool stuff.. i do think that if people would use more tests like these and actually incorporated the results into their lifestyle, anyone would do better in life

Assignment 3

Learning Style Results:

Social 14
Verbal 13
Logical 11
physical 10
Aural 10
Solitary 10
Visual 9

I don't agree with social being the learning style I use the most. I hate group work and prefer online classes to attending class. I tend to view others as incompetent and get annoyed when people ask questions in class and hold everyone up. I like to do things my way and at my own pace (quickly) when it comes to learning. I learn best through memorization, logical thinking, and visualization.

Assignment 3

Here is my results from the Learning Styles Test:

Learning Styles Test:
This test stresses that I am a social, aural, and physical person. I do agree with this portion of the test. I love socializing when it is appropriate and I work out often. What I do not agree with is that the test said my weakness was logic. I consider myself logical as well as verbal. This test gave somewhat similar results in which it called out the feelings and perception of what I most portray.

Assignment 3

On the learning styles inventory my scores were: visual=6, social=14, physical=4, aural=5, verbal=11, solitary=6, and logical=7. For the most part these results are accurate. I would consider myself a social learner because I like to figure things out with people and work together in groups. I would have thought that my visual score would have been higher because I learn well when I can see things and see how they work.

Assignment 3

For the learning style inventory, my three highest scores were in Aural, Social and Solitary. I found this interesting considering I have both Social and Solitary. I think Aural is most correctly matched because I identify with music daily. To me, these quizzes were quite fun. : )
