Personal Temperament Report

This week I took the test provided on our Moodle site to test my personal Temperament. I found the questions very relevant on determining my attitudes and values. It was interesting to see my "Temperament Result" and I found myself relating to and agreeing with a lot of the explanations. I would encourage everyone to take this test even to view the result themselves it really does put a perspective on things. My results showed that my personality type is that of a “Guardian”.

“Guardians can have a lot of fun with their friends, but they are quite serious about their duties and responsibilities. Guardians take pride in being dependable and trustworthy; if there's a job to be done, they can be counted on to put their shoulder to the wheel. Guardians make up as much as 40 to 45 percent of the population, and a good thing, because they usually end up doing all the indispensable but thankless jobs everyone else takes for granted.”

 

After reviewing my results from the Temperament Test I determined my personal learning style by using the Silver-Hansen-Strong Learning Styles Inventory.  I found that I use the sensate-feeling (SF) learning style. The key word associated with this learning style "interactive". Key terms are: sympathetic, friendly, group harmony, cooperative learning, jigsaw, group investigation. SF learners need to be involved in face-to-face communication in interdependent and collaborative ways to achieve a common goal or outcome determined by themselves or by the instructor.

I found that I do relate to this, I work best collaboratively and with visual things. I like to either work with a team and bounce ideas and issues off each other or lead a team towards achieving a goal. It is understandable that everyone is an individual and has their own personal learning styles.
