"Collaborating with different personality"
What do we really concern about when we hear or talk about the word “collaboration”? The groups -different personality types- who work together or the cooperation itself? By group, I mean any group, including teacher/ teacher, teacher/student, and student/student. In my opinion, a real and creative collaborative work must be based on some principles that are the same for all the groups. Indeed, such efforts can only turn to be fruitful if these principles are fully respected: these groups have to work together closely and be able to combine their different perspectives, and to share their ideas. They have to be mutually supportive and flexible, and establish a balanced working environment among themselves which means each group member willingly show readiness to take the involved amount of work and trouble. So, it doesn’t matter if an extraverted person who, according to Mamchur, “likes to think out loud”, “to learn together”, and “leans by doing” works with an introverted person who “needs to think everything through, inside their heads” and “is quiet and thoughtful”.
