Using personality inventories to form teams for class projects
Rebecca H. Rutherfoord · 2006
Many Information Technology classes require some sort of team project. As part of research into using personality inventories to help form project teams, the author conducted a case study in a software engineering/systems analysis class using a control group methodology for group selection after giving a personality inventory to students. This paper will discuss concepts of personality inventories, how they can be used for group selection, the case study itself, and further discussion of how this can be applied in other classes. The primary personality inventory used is the Keirsey Temperament Sorter.
