This was a great affirmation of the differences in personalities. We need to honor the introverted and administration should understand that not all students require collaboration within groups.

As an introvert, I feel a sense of understanding of myself and those students who gravitate towards me and how much it impacts them to have a teacher who represents a version of themselves they are not aware they can achieve and how much it helps validate their feelings that may go unnoticed or undervalued due to social stigmas. This course is essential to the connection for GT students who require an understanding of their preferred learning creative environment.

I have never thought about people who are introverted as being thoughtful. I always felt that something was wrong. Now I understand that it is ok to be quiet. Introversion is not a disability.
