The learning inventory test I took was the David A. Kolb style model. It had four approaches, the concrete experience, abstract conceptualization, reflective observation, and active experimentation. My results said I was a diverger, which tends toward concrete experience and reflective observation. Divergers are imaginative and are good at coming up with ideas and seeing things from different perspectives. I am imaginative, believe in my own experience, and I'm a insight thinker. I agree with most of it, but the part where it said I was not goal orientated. The results can help me as a learner by having a very vivid imagination, and prefer working with people rather than things. As a teacher, I could create my own curriculum, and attempt to individualize instructions.
The other inventory test I took was the Myers Briggs test. It tests, am I this way because I learned it or its the just the way I am. Out of the four personality type letters, I got INFP. I am introverted, intuitive, feeling, and perceiving. Mainly, I am dominant introvert feeling. Meaning that I try to help others find joy in their self. Truly intense and passionate about my values, which I only share with trusted friends. I agree with this test the most, they seem pretty much the same. Just with a few exceptions. It can help me in the classroom, because I have good listening skills, and am a avid reader. As a teacher, it would help since I am sensitive to others and help others in any way. We try to inspire others to just be themselves. These test are pretty accurate, but not perfect. There will never be a test that can tell you 100%.
