The Cult of Personalities - Test Everything

Today we begin class listening to the song Cult of Personality by Living Colour. ("Only you can set you free....")

We will continue our personality study by looking at Wikipedia. (I do not normally consider Wikipedia a reliable source, so this should give you an idea what I think about personality tests.) We will review the "Big Five" personality traits.

Read the five traits.
Find a character from one of your favorite cartoons or animated feature films that fits under one of the five traits.
Then sketch the character.

I am including a link to the book The Cult of Personality Tests "How Personality Tests are Leading Us to Miseducate Our Children..."
You may want this reference for the future. Your character is important, so is your personality, but can we assess your character by a simple test?
