Abstract

Many Online Nursing Courses require students to work in groups of 3-4. Faculty frequently assign individuals to these groups using random methods. Having students take a personality typology survey allows the faculty to assign students based upon their 16 unique personality traits which could promote better working relations and outcomes.
