What did you learn about yourself from this project? What did you learn about others?

I learned a lot about myself from this project like actually read a lot about myself because as I sit back, my personality trait falls under the category of guardian, which I never really realized that’s what I would come up under. I do care about people a lot and sometimes I can find myself doing things for others before I do for myself. Some of the things I found out about people were shocking because the loudest and hype person would actually fall under a guardian because I would at least expect that person to fall under a rational, which is a person who does their own thing.

In schooling, should students be grouped homogeneously (same personality, backgrounds, skills) or heterogeneously (different personalities, abilities, cultures)? Why?

Students should not be grouped heterogeneously because they can experience more and learn things about different people around them, like personalities, and etc. I learned a lot about people I hang around everyday when we took the personality test because as I sit back and learned about different characteristics of my friends, them we read them and it really characterize them. So, in a homogeneously group you won’t learn experience different things in life.
