Ecology + Personality Types

As human beings, it's very important that we have a deep understanding of who we are and how we fit in. As middle schoolers, the need is even stronger as this is where students first start to really question and understand who they are and what part they play in the world. For this unit, students will take a two tests to discover what kind of learner they are and what kind of personality type they have. They may or may not agree with their results, but that's okay as they'll have the opportunity to contest their results. Students will then create a Powtoon that introduces themselves to the world in the way they wish to be perceived. Their personality types and choices will come into play in October as they will need to think strategically about the part they play in conjunction with their classmates in order to successfully work together to complete two different virtual challenges. Feel free to take the tests along with the students: What’s Your Learning Style? and 16Personalities Test. Here is Mr. Novick's example:
