My strength includes high conscientiousness in learning. I tend to be organized, planning ahead and reading before classes such that the actual class acts as a reinforcement for my learning. According to Double-loop Learning (Smith, 2001; 2013), we often merely learn from wrong answers and try a different approach if we do not get the questions correct. However, double-loop learning requires us to understand why do we have such tendencies. Why do I always fail to see the connection between the theories and the case?
