Question: A. THE JOHARI WINDOW PROJECT (All classes)
1. Creating the Window: Process
Number of Characteristics in each Window
• Each window must have Two (2) characteristics/personality traits
The Johari Window will include the characteristics that you found out about yourself. Please see sample window below that describes the kind of information that would be included.
1. The Window
The information you include in your window will come from the Interview process above. Each window must have two characteristic/personality trait.
I. Open Window
The open window has information that we know about ourselves and that those around us know about us as well. Those we interact with most often will know a about us. So generally, you will ask the other person questions that are confirmatory in nature, for example, you may say/ask: I am impatient, do you agree with me on this?) If the person says no, then you continue talking about yourself until you generally agree on some information that is known to both of you.
Usually, you will get several responses; select the one piece of information that you think best suits you.
II. The Blind Window
The blind window will contain information that we DON'T KNOW. Very often we interact with others and we don't know what they see in us/about us that may be revealing something about us. A good question that both you and the other person could ask is: "CAN YOU TELL ME A PERSONAL CHARACTERISTIC OR PERSONALITY TRAIT ABOUT ME THAT YOU THINK I DON'T KNOW?"
Usually, you will get several responses; select the one piece of information that youthink best suits you.
III. The Hidden Window
The hidden window contains the information that we know about ourselves but that we consider to be private, and therefore we do not want to show/share.
PLEASE NOTE: For this window, you will be responsible for providing THIS information about yourself to the other person.
Usually, the other person will be surprised to learn some things that you will share; select the one piece of information that you think the other person was most surprised to learn.
IV. The Unknown Window
The unknown window remains unknown. However, the fact that you don't know this information does not mean that it doesn't exist. It simply means that you are not in touch with it. This window remains blank.
B. THE INTERVIEW PROJECT: (Fully Online Only)
a. You will select a person of your choosing. Ideally, this should be someone you know well.
b. You will conduct an interview with that person.
c. You will use this interview to self-disclose and give the person the opportunity to do the same.
How will conduct this interview?
1. You will provide a list of questions (No more than 8 questions) that you want to ask that person about him/her self. These questions are designed to learn more about some of the characteristics that your friend possesses.
2. You will ask the person to provide a list of questions (No more than 8 questions) that he/she wants to ask you. These questions are designed to learn more about some of the characteristics that you possess.
3. Usually you will get more information than you set out to get. Write down everything. You may find use for the information later.
The objective is to
• provide information about yourself to that person

o Be careful of the questions that you ask. Do not invade others privacy.

In addition to the WINDOW, you will have to write an ESSAYas part of this project. This ESSAY will be 2 pages long and will be graded according to the Standards below.

The Essay must follow the Standards of the Rubric below. Please write the Essay in essay format using the following questions as a guideline.
• According to businessdictionary's website a GUIDELINE is defined as "Recommended practice that allows some discretion or leeway in its interpretation, implementation, or use. This means that I am providing the questions to GUIDE your essay, and NOT a set of questions that you must answer.
Guiding questions:
• What was the overall advantages/disadvantages of doing this project?
• Of all the things that you could have included in your open and hidden windows, why did you choose what you wrote?
• How do you think you will feel once you reveal this information in a class setting?
• What kinds of reactions do you believe you will get from your colleagues?
• Who are the people you chose to ask about you?
• Why did you choose these people?
• How did you finally decide what to put on your blind window?
