Project #2:

COMMUNICATION AND RELATIONSHIPS (10 Pts.)

Personality Profile Paper

The objective of this project is for students to explore and understand different personality types and how these differences influence and effect communication.

STUDENT RESPONSIBILITY: Each student will complete The Personality Profile (will be available on TITANium) and have someone you communicate with regularly, but not in this class, also complete the profile. Upon completion of the profiles, students will be given an explanation and further information on how to interpret the results.

STUDENT REPORT: With this knowledge of the results, you will write a minimum of a 3 - 3 ½ page paper. Your papers will be typed, double-spaced, 12 pt. font, Times New Roman, black ink only, and stapled together. Make sure your papers are free of grammatical and spelling errors ---- you will be graded on this. Your paper will discuss each of the following:

· List the personality type of yourself and your friend/partner (mention the type of relationship you have with this person (i.e. friend, co-worker, parent, boyfriend, etc.).

· Discuss the key characteristics of only the personality types or colors for both you and your

friend/partner.

· How are both of you (or your colors) different? How are both of you (or your colors) similar?

· How are conflicts, disagreements or miscommunications handled in this relationship?

· Give an example of a conflict, disagreement or miscommunication you have had with this

person and discuss how you might deal with the situation now that you are more aware

of their personality type.

· Discuss how different personality types affect (positively or negatively) communication.
