Make a list of your own personality traits and then address the foll.docxBetseyCalderon89
Make a list of your own personality traits and then address the following questions:
How much, if at all, has your personality changed from the time you were in elementary school?
What specific people and/or events most shaped your personality over the last fifteen years of your life?
In terms of personality, which parent are you most like—your mother or your father—and in what ways?
After you consider these questions, discuss how, if at all, your answers may help to shed light on the “nature” versus “nurture”
Please also respond to my classmate's responses for 3-4 sentences. Here are my classmate's responses:
1. Since my elementary school career, I have drastically changed as a result of being exposed to more anxiety-provoking tasks. My personality has thereby been affected in a number of ways due to the aforementioned prospect. I have since become more organized and artistic due to my increasing creativity--since I have efficacy in visual arts. I have also become more mature, since I am always paying attention to my surroundings and what other people are thinking of me. However many benefits have come around, there are as many negative factors that have affected my personality. As described above, I am always affected by my social anxiety as well as always wanting to be in isolation as a result.
The people who have shaped my personality the most over the span of fifteen years are my parents. I have never acquainted myself with others during my schooling career, in which I would always join friend groups since I would be able to blend within the mix. My mother has allowed me to become more diligent over the span of a few years thereby allowing me to become more vulnerable as well as being independent. My mother also got me in the habit of practicing mindfulness and meditation--since she is a Zen psychologist. This in effect has also improved my mental health. As for my father, he would always follow up with my mother on such activities since he had also experienced loneliness in his working environment. While both myself and my father were going through such rigorous training, we were able to improve upon ourselves as well as monitoring each other during the process.
While I have many similarities to that of my father, my personality type closely resembles that of my mother. This is so since we both have similar mindsets and ideologies, her art also closely resembles that of my own. All the more, she developed in a similar form and fashion to that of my upbringing in which she also had anxiety in abundance while eventually being able to overcome such factors--a process that I have endured myself.
I believe that my anxiety is deeply rooted in the essence of who I am as a human being which has been given to me by both my mother and father. Both experienced separate levels of trepidation, one had social anxiety while the other was agoraphobic for a time. Another factor rela.

It is possible to hide or invisible some fields in odoo. Commonly using “invisible” attribute in the field definition to invisible the fields. This slide will show how to make a field invisible in odoo 17.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2. Intrinsic and Extrinsic Motivation
Intrinsic Motivation;
Intrinsic motivation is a form of motivation in which one is internally motivated by
his or her desires, the feeling of fulfilment in accomplishing and completing a
certain task. Intrinsic motivation is not driven by external factors such as rewards
or punishment, but pleasure in conducting or participating in the activity itself.
From my personal experience, I am able to relate with the concept of intrinsic
motivation through my experience with music lessons, or playing music in
general. I picked up the violin during my childhood through my parents’ wishes
for me to learn a musical instrument. Throughout the years, it became somewhat
of a chore to me as I would only learn exam related playing, and I didn’t enjoy
myself. I only carried on with them because my parents wanted me to.
It wasn’t until I progressed to my teenage years that I became more exposed to
the various genres of music, the different playing styles and the potential of what
a violin could do that I began to enjoy myself and become more immersed in
improving my skills, playing songs from out of the exam scheme and improvising.
From only then on did I feel the drive from within myself to continue my
3. experience with music, to play for the pleasure of improving myself and learning
more, rather than to simply go with my parents’ wishes.
The intrinsic motivation I felt came to me when I began to take an interest in
playing music on my own. This is an experience of mine with intrinsic motivation.
4. Extrinsic Motivation;
For my experience with extrinsic motivation, I will relate to the time of my SPM
examinations, which was only last year. For me, I experienced this sort of
motivation when I was extremely pressured to do well for these exams. This
pressure would come from my family, my teachers and to a certain extent,
myself.
Although studying was something that I was not all that interested in, I was
motivated to push on with it for the sake of saving my parents face, competing
with my elder brother who had aced his SPM exams, and for the sake of my own
future. Being a very lazy person and given that I had no interest in my school
subjects, this was especially challenging for me.
However with all of these external factors at hand, I gained the motivation to
work hard in the final months before the examinations, and was able to perform
decently well, making the people around me happy as well as myself.
Aside from that, I also kept on holding on to the fact that all I had to do was work
hard for those few months, and I would be rewarded with a long, well-deserved
(if I had performed well) break.
Thus I would conclude that it was extrinsic motivation that I received that helped
me gain the drive to strive for excellence.
5. Perception
The Halo Effect;
For the topic of perception I would like to elaborate on my experience with the
halo effect. The Halo Effect being defined as a cognitive bias in which an
observer's overall impression of a person, company, brand, or product influences
the observer's feelings and thoughts about that entity's character or properties.
In my experience earlier this year, I was resuming violin lessons under a new
teacher. This new teacher that I was being introduced to was introduced to me by
a high school friend of mine, whom was a very accomplished violinist. She had
told me that this was her current teacher, who she had been under since she
began violin lessons, and that this teacher was very skilled in tutoring students
while being a very talented violinist herself.
All of this information led to me being under the impression that this teacher
must have been “the best teacher ever”, thus giving birth to the “halo effect”
perception. So even as I proceeded to take lessons under this new teacher and as
she had her shortcomings (she would often cut class, rush back early and be tired
when I arrived for class in the evening. In her defense, she had just conceived her
first child at the time), I was still under the illusion that she was a good teacher,
from the impression my friend had given me, and didn’t mind.
6. The Halo Effect
Another experience of mine with the halo effect theory is during my schooling
days, with my different teachers.
For my physics subject, my class would alternate between two different teachers,
Miss Liang and Miss Ling. Miss Liang was the older, more strict teacher whom was
also a discipline teacher and she would often be the one apprehending students
for disciplinary issues. Miss Ling on the other hand was the younger, gentler and
more friendly teacher who was also the supervisor for the librarian students (I
was a librarian at the time).
Although Miss Liang was the more experienced teacher in the school, my class
often preferred paying attention to and gave better attendance to Miss Ling, due
to us having a more comfortable impression of her, even though she was less
experienced a teacher than Miss Liang.
Our bias toward Miss Ling influenced our preference between the two teachers,
due to the “halo effect” we perceived about Miss Ling.
7. Social Facilitation and Social Loafing
Social Loafing
Social Loafing is a phenomena in when an individual performs poorly in a group,
due to feeling that his/her contributions may not be noticed or be of great impact
to the cause.
I have noticed this characteristic in myself during group assignments, especially
when there exists a communicational barrier between myself and others in the
group. In a couple of incidents when I was grouped with groups where most of my
group members are fluent in Chinese whereas I am not, they would often
communicate amongst themselves in Chinese and I would be unable to involve
myself in group discussions.
The end result being the rest of the group coming up with the ideas and concepts
for the assignment, whereas I would have to follow. Not being able to
communicate my ideas fluently with the group and having them make any real
impact, I took my leave until all else was settled and they finally required me to
present the assignment to the teacher.
This lack of motivation to work with a group and participate in discussions, I
would attribute to social loafing.
8. Social Facilitation
Social facilitation is a phenomena in which an individual performs better in
groups, rather than during solo activities. This attitude is often due to the
individual feeling that his efforts would be noticed and would contribute to the
goals of the group.
I would relate the concept of social facilitation in my life to my experiences in
school drama competitions. Back in school when we would all rehearse and
practice for competitions, we would be working as a team, each “actor” and
“actress” would be playing their own unique individual roles according to script
and impromptu.
While everyone in the team was talented and enthusiastic about the competition,
I didn’t feel at all intimidated or envious of any of my teammates’ performances.
This was because although they were all so talented, each of us had a unique and
key role in making the whole play a success. In my own role and in my own way
that no one else was, I felt (I was) essential. This pushed me to do my best and
work well with everyone else to achieve our common goal (giving the competition
a good show, that is).
As opposed to working alone, I felt that my efforts were of impact in my group
and that caused me to further facilitate myself in our work.
9. Prosocial Behaviour
Altruistic & Egoistic Models of Helping
Altruistic Model
Prosocial behaviours are classified as the positive social actions intended to help
others. Altruistic models are when behaviours are done for selfless reasons.
An example of altruistic social behaviour that I have previously observed in myself
is when I offered help to a fellow schoolmate on his way to his car in the parking
lot.
An afternoon in campus after I had found a good parking spot close to the
building, I met a student who was on his way back to his car. He was however,
walking with a limp. Having gotten into a conversation with him, he told me that
he had just sprained his ankle. Out of concern I asked him if he needed a lift back
to his car, as he mentioned he was parked quite a distance away. After he
accepted my offer, I proceeded to get my car and drove him over to his car.
I performed this act out of empathy and concern for his wellbeing, rather than out
of hoping for a reward in return. Thus, I can relate this act to an altruistic model of
prosocial behaviour.
10. Egoistic Models of Helping
Egoistic models of helping are a prosocial behaviour in which when behaviours
are done for selfish reasons, or for the sake of one’s own welfare.
An example of egoistic social behaviour that I have demonstrated in myself is
when, for example, my parents don’t necessarily need my assistance, but I go out
of my way to provide it. I think this behaviour is common in all children when they
want/need something from their parents.
On occasion, when I have needed some extra money or permission to leave the
house to meet up with friends of mine, I have willingly made myself available to
carry out errands for them, be it going downstairs to get my dad a drink or being
my mother’s personal chauffeur. In return, after having helped them or done
them favours, I would expect a reward in return, or being granted permission for
something I need their approval for.
This kind of prosocial behaviour in which I expect something in return from my
parents, or when I help them for my own welfare, I can attribute to the egoistic
model of prosocial behaviour.
11. Stereotyping / Discrimination
Discrimination/Stereotyping
Discrimination is a form of negative behaviour directed at a certain group of
people. Stereotyping is a general belief about a group of people that runs the risk
of being discrimination should these beliefs be negative.
Myself being a mixture of races (Malay, Chinese, Indian), I have actually in a sense
become more and less sensitive to the topic of racial discrimination (racism).
While I am very against the idea of racism myself, I have absolutely no issue in
racial discrimination-related humour, so long as it remains in the context of
humour.
While there didn’t really exist any serious discrimination in my schooling days,
there was discrimination against discrimination. All of my schoolmates were all
well versed with all sorts of racial humour and stereotypes, but they were all
against the idea of actual discrimination. In school, we would discriminate those
who were racist or sexist or anyone who practiced any form of discrimination.
My experience with discrimination in school was more towards anti-discrimination
rather than actual discrimination.
12. Discrimination / Stereotyping
Whilst discrimination was glared upon, racial humour was all over the place in
school. I experienced a lot of stereotyping in school, but none which were
intentionally offensive. Out of fun and lighthearted jokes, maybe.
Most of the jokes we made in school were racial-stereotypical related. Malay,
Chinese and Indian students would all gather to tell each other jokes about how
the Chinese students often wore spectacles because their original pair of eyes
were too small, while the Chinese students would counter saying that the Indian
students were hard to see in the bad lighting. Malay students would try to join in,
but would then be told off that all the Malay girls look the same with their
“tudungs” on.
In conclusion, my experience with stereotyping was not necessarily a bad one, as
stereotyping can have both negative and positive connotations.
