Know thyself

For our final blog post of Q2, I thought we would reflect on our personality and on how unique we all are. At the beginning of this quarter we took a series of creativity tests and discussed the importance of bringing your own uniqueness to a complex task such as the numerous tasks you've all been exploring.

A central theme in the psychologist Carl Yung's infamous theory of individuation is that the integration of opposites while maintaining autonomy is central to human development. What I think this means is that we grow stronger together by being exposed to different personalities while holding onto who we are.

Take this Carl Yung inspired quiz and share your results on our blog and share whether you agree or not with the results.

Ted Talks

For our next blog post you are in control. For this post I want you to choose a video from the site below and summarize it for us in a paragraph or two.

First give us the title of the one you watched. Then describe in detail what it was about, why you chose to watch it and why you would recommend it for your classmates to watch.
