In This Episode:
This week we take a look at the strange world of personalities. Bryan kicks things off by discussing learning styles and whether or not they really have an impact on us or not. Sean discusses the interesting challenge of designing for apps and platforms that have a personality of their own, and how we design for the personality of our users. Finally, Sam closes things out by considering how we quantify and group personalities through various tests such as the Myers-Briggs, DISC, and the Big Five.
