Personality Test 1

personal screenshot from projects.fivethirtyeight.com

According to FiveThirtyEight, I am very open to different experiences, highly agreeable, conscientious, have some negative emotionality, and have low extraversion. I don't believe in personality tests but find them interesting to take. I do like different experiences and will try anything at least once. If I decide I do not like the experience, I will not do it again. I am not highly agreeable. I was bullied in school because I did well in school. I did not have strong relationships with peers and to this day it takes a lot for me to feel comfortable building those relationships. I am detail orientated but it is more in terms of seeing things others do not because I am paying attention to everything. Otherwise I will try to get outside the box as often as I can. The quiz says that I fall in the middle of having negative emotionality. I have anxiety but did not see many questions about this aside from worrying about the future and if people like me. I am in introvert. Unless I have to be an extrovert. This is usually during convention season and at work. I do like being around certain people for small bursts because that is how you learn things. 

Personality Test 2

According to My Personality Test, I am an INTP. This personality test says that I am incredibly introverted to the point of questioning my existence. It also says that I am a perfectionist. I could care less if something is perfect and prefer things to occur naturally. I do not question my existence and, as previously stated, do enjoy being around people for certain amounts of time. 

Personality Test 3

According to 16Personalities, I am an INFP-A personality type. It says that I am a mediator and that "mediators are poetic, kind, and altruistic people, always eager to help a good cause." It says that I am mostly an introvert, imaginative, open-minded, think about my feelings and use them to make decisions, can improvise and adapt to situations, and that I am assertive. I don't think I am too assertive but that might be where I become more extroverted in different situations. I think this one might be the most accurate. 


Action Plan

I am already working on being more extroverted and extending my time around people. This is one reason that I chose to work comic cons and work as a handler for the guests. Not only do you have to constantly be "on" when you are with your guest, you have to work with all manner of people that you would not usually work with. They are also not always going to be the best customers. Anything can and will happen at a convention so it keeps you on your toes as well and makes sure that you either improvise or adapt whenever something comes up. There is no timeline since this could take however long it takes. I do not intend to become the most extroverted person ever or become not an introvert anymore. I just want to be more comfortable around people and try to revisit some of the feelings I had before my anxiety started. The only steps are to continue doing my best and putting in for conventions when they come around.

Technology's Impact

Kahoot The tool that I chose was Kahoot. It falls under the "Games for learning" section of the ISTE article . Kahoot is considered a quiz game and offers a competitive nature to learning for the students. It is often used in classrooms to replace pencil and paper quizzes or for study purposes. Of the options that are available, most users play the game live and allow students to play against each other for points. The points in the game usually have no meaning but by playing the game, students usually get a pass fail grade on the assignment they are using Kahoot for. Kahoot can also be used as a fun game to pass the time after finals or in a program. There are other topics that the teens can choose from like movie trivia, music trivia, or just pop culture that would allow them to take a break from their usual use of the website. A teen or teacher can also make their own Kahoot quizzes and share them on the website. They can add video clips, audio clips, or images to the ques...

Teen Social Media Use

  Surgeon General The first link that I looked at was from thesocialinstitute.com and it looked at the new Surgeon General warning that 13 might be too young for kids to be on social media. This article points out what many are already starting to figure out and others are by passing, that it is not exactly realistic. Most social media sites require a minimum age of 13 to sign up to begin with. Which also leads to many lying about their age to get on. But the important thing is, most 13 and up students already have a social media account. They have probably been using it for quite a while and it might be the only way they can keep in contact with some friends already. The article mentions the schools getting involved and helping teens figure out how to use social media safely and to create "a designated tech time or tech-free time during school". Something that should already be happening in terms of social media during class time. But even then, the schools play into the st...

Accessibility

  personal infographic Accessibility in Education I student taught during the pandemic. For the most part, everything went back to basics. We lectured over Zoom or Teams instead of discussions-based learning. Everything was done over PowerPoint and uploaded to an online classroom afterwards. For a lot of students, this made lessons more accessible and more comprehensible. A lot of students who had IEPs and 504 plans thrived with the online learning since they were able to have access to lessons as well as more resources to help them. Many of the students that chose to complete the semester in the hybrid model or came back to the school, fell behind because of the type of learning that was being done. Everything was online, even if the students were in the classroom with me. Most schools now do not offer online learning whatsoever. The students that thrived and were doing well are now back where they were prior to the pandemic. One of the reasons I think the students are failing ...
