Topic A1: The Online Journey Begins - Additional Resources

Below are online resources which may help you in preparation. Take a moment to visit each. If you find a resource particularly helpful, remember to 'bookmark' that page to make it easier to return to it at a later time.

 

Keirsey Temperament Sorter

Designed to identify different types of personality, this tool is similar to others derived from Carl Jung's theory of "psychological types," such as the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator. The questionnaire identifies four temperament types: Guardian, Artisan, Idealist, and Rational. If you complete the online assessment and review the results, compare your results with the findings in the article, "Internet Teaching By Style: Profiling the Online Instructor."
