TITLE:
Psychological Type, Learning Styles and Teaching Strategies: Student and Faculty Implications in an Online Environment
SESSION DESCRIPTION:
This session will investigate how students with different psychological preferences adapt to the online learning environment and how teachers may adapt teaching styles to accommodate these different learning styles. The session begins with an overview of the adaptation of Carl Jung’s work into the Myers Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI®). Next, there will be a synopsis of some of the research on the interrelationship of personality preferences and learning styles. Finally, participants will consider strategies that CDL instructors may employ in our online learning environment to enhance the learning of our students.

Jung’s Type Theory suggests: All people have preferences Preferences are dichotomous - people will prefer one preference to its opposite The theory emphasizes the need for balance between the dichotomous preferences •We have the potential to develop the skills related to all the preferences. •Preferences are innate They don’t change over the life span All preferences and types are equally valuable The expression of type may vary in accordance with different stages of life, and different circumstances (Harold Grant’s work broke it down into life stages: 0-6; 6-12; 13-20; 21-35; 36-55; over 55) The environment becomes extremely important - it can foster or discourage the development of natural preferences.

Review History of Type Theory and the MBTI Three main developers of Type Theory: Carl Jung, Kathering Briggs and her Daughter, Isabel Myers Carl Jung • Born in Switzerland in 1875 • In 1900, decided to specialize in psychiatry when he was certified in medicine • In 1921, publishes the book, “Psychological Type” after 25 years of developing his ideas based on the study of literature, his relationship with other psychiatrists such as Freud, his patients and other work done on topological schemes. 4. Katherine Briggs • Born 1875 (died 1968) • 1897 Daughter Isabel was born • 1923 Reads Jung’s English translation of “Psychological Type” • 1926-1928 - her writings on personality type and her writings on education are published. 5. Isabel Briggs Myers • Home schooled by Katherine • 1923-1942 - Works with her mother Katherine and studies type in the Myers Family • 1944- WWII - Both decided that an indicator needed to be created to help with the effective placement in wartime jobs • Development of MBTI and supporting research become the major focus of her life.

1. Just a fun slide. Let class know that this does not mean all of these people have taken the MBTI. Many of these individuals’ type was determined from their actions and public speeches. Therefore the accuracy of the chart cannot be confirmed.
