***Just a reminder…..Google Profile vs Google Drive***
Just a reminder…. do NOT log in with Google Profile…. go to gmail.com or drive.google.com to log in please. If you log in to Google Profile there is a big chance it will mess up all bookmarks I have made available for students.

Your personality type influences many areas of your life. Many people find that understanding their personality type makes it much easier to see themselves objectively. This self-awareness helps them access their strengths and address weaknesses in ways that make their lives better. One of the most rewarding aspects of personality typology is when people discover that they’re not alone in the way that they think and feel. It can be a great relief to realize that many other people share surprisingly similar internal mechanics and that each personality type’s approach to life is valid. Personality typology is also extremely helpful among people who don’t share similar traits. Learning how differently the personality types function lets diverse people communicate and understand each other better. This can have powerfully beneficial effects in the workplace.
You will be using the 16Personalities.com website during this assignment to determine your personality style. Before starting the assessment be sure no one is logged into the website. If no one is logged in, a “Take the Test” button should be available in the top right corner of the window. If there is a “personality character” displaying in the top right corner of the screen, someone forgot to log in before leaving. When your results display, be sure to the results emailed to you by creating an account! Do not click to proceed until we have created an account AND created a screen shot of your results which we will also print.
