This is a general discussion forum for the following learning topic:

Understanding Online Instructors’ and Learners’ Personality Traits --> Understanding True Colors Personality Traits

Post what you've learned about this topic and how you intend to apply it. Feel free to post questions and comments too.

While there are 4 colors to represent the different ways an individual is, I believe a person can change "color" as they get older and more experienced. 

I feel that I am a blue personality. I will think about this when I am interacting with students

By understanding your students you will know what exactly their learning and it will help them with their learning styles as well. 

I believe I fall between some of the green and orange tendencies. This is helpful as it reminds me of some of my weaknesses. It is also helpful to consider the different perspectives of different learners.

I found this discussion very interesting and well presented.

Different colors represent different personality types.

These color assessments seem to be pretty accurate.  I'm going to suggest to my coworkers that the take the color assessment and we'll compare notes at our next meeting!

I learned that I might be a combo of Blue & Gold. 

Color personality types are similar to Myers Briggs Types. They assess an individual's strengths based on a self-assessment. Different colors are generally drawn to specific work environments; much like enneagram types, the true color assessment combines your two most dominant types in the assessment 

I learned that I am BLUE and now will use it to understand my relations to other colors

This is really a unqiue way to understand personality type.  I typically do not use this type of assessment or typing but I can see how it would be useful.

TCP test is a very interesting insight into personality types, I like the didactic identification of stressors and main characteristics of each color type

That all the TC types have similar strengths and weaknesses. 

My understanding is that each behavior have corresponding colors and based on hues. I like the green which is really me

I have learned that True Color Personality Traits have their strengths, weaknesses, needs, and stressors. Knowing all of these will help me understand my students' personalities. Every student is special and we should understand their personalities to devise a strategy that suits their needs and interests. Ultimately, they are our top priority, and we must find ways to guide them in achieving their educational goals. 

I find this topic very interesting. My favorite color is blue and all the things mentioned in this topic describe my personality traits. 

I learned that the TC personality trait assessment helps individuals understand their strengths, weaknesses, values, and needs through color-coded traits: blue (people-oriented), gold (organized planners), green (logical thinkers), and orange (action-oriented). This understanding enhances self-awareness and helps manage relationships by recognizing personality differences. I intend to apply this by adapting my interactions and teaching methods based on students' traits, fostering better communication, support, and minimizing conflicts.

We need to remember that though one personally type may be dominant, many may be present. Also, though there are positives for each type, there are challenges as well. Recognizing the challenges in ourselves and helping our students do the same will equate in success for the student.

The true color personality traits are an interesting approach to understanding our teaching styles and also the learning styles of our students.
