Finding the Right Words In this process of self-exploration, you may find that persons who you choose to ask about you, may not be able to find the right words to define/describe what they are thinking. Please feel free to send them to this website - http://www.kevan.org/johari - to assist them in that regard.
1. The Johari’s Window---Model of Self disclosure
Please read up about the Johari’s Window in your textbook. Please feel free to use sources external to your textbook to help with your understanding of this concept.
2. The Assignment Due Date The Johari Window project is due on Sunday October 3, 2021 and will be submitted in the content folder with the assignment title: JOHARI WINDOW
A. THE JOHARI WINDOW PROJECT (All classes) 1. Creating the Window: Process
Number of Characteristics in each Window
• Each window must have Two (2) characteristics/personality traits
The Johari Window will include the characteristics that you found out about yourself. Please see sample window below that describes the kind of information that would be included.
1. The Window The information you include in your window will come from the Interview process above. Each window must have two characteristic/personality trait. I. Open Window
The open window has information that we know about ourselves and that those around us know about us as well. Those we interact with most often will know a about us. So generally, you will ask the other person questions that are confirmatory in nature, for example, you may say/ask: I am impatient, do you agree with me on this?) If the person says no, then you continue talking about yourself until you generally agree on some information that is known to both of you.
Usually, you will get several responses; select the one piece of information that you think best suits you.
II. The Blind Window The blind window will contain information that we DON’T KNOW. Very often we interact with others and we don’t know what they see in us/about us that may be revealing something about us. A good question that both you and the other person could ask is: “CAN YOU TELL ME A PERSONAL CHARACTERISTIC OR PERSONALITY TRAIT ABOUT ME THAT YOU THINK I DON’T KNOW?”
Usually, you will get several responses; select the one piece of information that you think best suits you.

III. The Hidden Window The hidden window contains the information that we know about ourselves but that we consider to be private, and therefore we do not want to show/share. PLEASE NOTE: For this window, you will be responsible for providing THIS information about yourself to the other person. Usually, the other person will be surprised to learn some things that you will share; select the one piece of information that you think the other person was most surprised to learn.
IV. The Unknown Window The unknown window remains unknown. However, the fact that you don’t know this information does not mean that it doesn’t exist. It simply means that you are not in touch with it. This window remains blank.
B. THE INTERVIEW PROJECT: (Fully Online Only)
a. You will select a person of your choosing. Ideally, this should be someone you know well.
b. You will conduct an interview with that person. c. You will use this interview to self-disclose and give the person the opportunity to do
the same. How will conduct this interview? 1. You will provide a list of questions (No more than 8 questions) that you want to ask that
person about him/her self. These questions are designed to learn more about some of the characteristics that your friend possesses.
2. You will ask the person to provide a list of questions (No more than 8 questions) that he/she wants to ask you. These questions are designed to learn more about some of the characteristics that you possess.
3. Usually you will get more information than you set out to get. Write down everything. You may find use for the information later.
The objective is to
• provide information about yourself to that person
• get to know more about someone else o Be careful of the questions that you ask. Do not invade others privacy.
C. THE ESSAY (All classes)
In addition to the WINDOW, you will have to write an ESSAY as part of this project. This ESSAY will be 2 pages long and will be graded according to the Standards below. P.S.: You cannot write Essay until AFTER YOU HAVE COMPLETED THIS WINDOW EXPERIMENT. Both Window and Essay are due at the same time. The Essay must follow the Standards of the Rubric below.
