This week you have spent some time working on finding your learning style and also discovering some things about your personality. In this week’s journal, you will spend some time reflecting and writing your thoughts on your style of learning and your true colors as a college student. The journal prompt is a reflection of your learning each week. Write at least 6-10 sentences of reflection.
Draw connections between your True Color results and your learning style preferences.
Give a detailed example of how you might apply this information in a class you will take in the near future. How does your "color" reflect in your day-to-day life and in our Learning Framework course? i'm a visual learner and I got the color gold which means Gold: People with a Gold temperament value sensibility, authenticity, tradition, and dependability. They are trustworthy, dutiful, stable, organized, responsible, dedicated, and often good with planning and premeditated goals. In relation to others, Golds typically wish to be seen as self-sufficient, punctual, well-prepared, and good community members. Golds are often the people who make sure that things are done according to plans, and as such, Golds have an easy time finding their way into respected jobs and positions of authority as they bring stability to long-term planning to many things they do. Golds generally prefer working in environments where details, rules, and objectives are laid out clearly, and there is a palpable appreciation for accomplishment. They value commitments, rules, and structure over the excitement-seeking and buzz of the moment.

In terms of applying this information in a class, I could use my visual learning style to create visually appealing study guides and visual summaries of concepts. For example, if I have a biology class, I could create colorful diagrams to illustrate processes like the cell cycle or photosynthesis. This would not only help me understand the material better, but it could also serve as a useful resource for my classmates.
In my day-to-day life, my gold temperament is reflected in my organization and attention to detail. I like to plan ahead and create to-do lists to stay on top of my tasks and responsibilities. I also value punctuality and being well-prepared for any commitments or meetings. Additionally, I strive to be a reliable and dedicated member of any community or group I am a part of.
In our Learning Framework course, my gold temperament is evident in my approach to assignments and discussions. I am conscientious and focused on meeting deadlines and fulfilling the requirements of each task. I also appreciate the structure and clear objectives set in the course, as it helps me stay on track and measure my progress. Additionally, I value the accomplishments and growth that come from completing assignments and participating actively in the course.
Overall, my visual learning style and gold temperament both emphasize the importance of structure, organization, and attention to detail. By recognizing and embracing these aspects of my learning and personality, I can optimize my learning experiences and strive for success in my college journey.
