Personality Profile 2

The Jung Typology Test pegged me as a ISFP.  It was a relief to know that I can call myself as I see myself. Knowing that I'm a quick to act on impulse type of person, I recognize that I need to reign in some of those impulses at the workplace.  There are times when I get an idea to implement a project or a lesson that I've put very little planning into and then it suddenly crashes and burns.  Now that I'm co-teaching with some very well organized veteran teachers I won't have the opportunity to unleash mayhem on classrooms as I have in the past.

I'll be honest, at first I was curious why were doing this assignment.  It seemed a bit out of place, but I get it now.  Awareness of the MBTI framework and one's personality type can help professionals reflect on how their self-awareness affects their interactions with others and their overall impact on their work environment.  

This assignment fits the ISTE NETS T standard five by engaging each of us in a level of professional growth.  We used the MBTI, Keirsey Temperament Overview, and Jung Typology Test to improve as educators and continue lifelong learning.
