When i was working on my bachelors degree online i was asked the same set of questions from my facilitator and by listing some of your hobbies it helps the facilitator in ways of re-directing your learning objectives as they can push you to become more involved in your learning. For example if you're an outgoing, adventurous individual, you are not afraid of taking risk and thinking outside of the box is your normal way of problem solving. If you're more reserved a different approach must be used to help guide this type of individual to think of the bigger picture. It helped me a great deal and my facilitator often times pushed me to the limits and taught me to see and problem solve each assignment in class.
