putting down my thoughts for the first time

Designing a learning aid on a topic (eg.earth,water,universe) using different personality types as personas.

The world is full of different kinds of people and that to me makes it a more interesting place.Different kinds of people- different cultures, cuisines, habits, languages etc is what makes the world enchanting. At the core of this, what is affected is our identities and personality.

Our personality affects the way we view the world, perceive situations, understand and most importantly learn.

I wish to develop a learning aid that is based on this thought.

As an art and design student I have at multiple times been inspired by my personal experiences and opinions.

In that regard, This project would be no different.As an ideology for me, as an individual, the intricate differences and similarities of human kind is what I enjoy experiencing with my personal life to and to be able to translate this into my work would be rewarding to me.

Having studied Psychology during my 10+2, I am aware of the theories related to personality types ( Multiple Intelligence Theory, Myers-Briggs Type Indicator) and understand that they have potential to be used for designing such a learning aid.
