Your Results, Two Rooms
Five numbers from Truity, read against the two careers you've already researched. Your work saves as you go. Only what you paste into Canvas is graded.
How this works (tap to open or close)
- Your results. Type the five numbers Truity gave you. Pick the one that surprised you or felt most true, and say why.
- The two rooms. Your two careers from the research sheet come in by themselves, and O*NET suggests a starting number on each of five dials. You set the final number for what each one's daily work asks, and say where you got it.
- What separates them. The tool shows you, side by side, where you sit and what each room asks. You pick the two traits that split the careers the most and explain what that means for you.
- Check the AI. Copy a prompt the tool writes, see what the AI guesses, then decide where it's right and where it's wrong. You're the judge, not the AI.
- Pull it together. Connect this to one earlier result and say where it leaves you. Then Build, Copy, paste into the box under this tool, Submit.
Five steps, about an hour after you've taken the Truity test and watched the lectures. You can stop anytime and come back.
Your results
These five numbers are scores out of 100 on each trait. A 70 means you sit toward the high end of that line, not that you beat 70 out of 100 people. Not a grade. Not a ceiling. A tendency.
Do this: type all five numbers from your Truity results page, then pick the one that stood out and say why.

What it looks like
The one that stood out
The two rooms
A trait only means something in a place. Here you describe what each career's ordinary day actually asks of a person, using what you already found in your research and your reality check.
Do this: check both career names, set all five dials for each career, and write one line on where your ratings came from. If O*NET suggests a starting number, treat it as the field. Your reality check is the room. Change any dial where the room disagrees.
What separates them
Each row is one trait. The circle is you. The two shapes are what each career's room asks for. Where the shapes sit far apart, that trait splits your two careers. Where they sit together, it doesn't help you decide, even if it's your highest score.
People stretch past their traits all the time, especially for work that matters to them. Stretching costs energy, though, and it adds up over a year. A gap tells you where the cost would be, so you can decide if it's worth paying.
Pick exactly two traits
Check the AI
AI is good at sounding sure. Treat what it says as a guess to test against what you already know, not an answer. Your judgment is what gets graded here.
Do this: press Copy prompt, paste it into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or Copilot, then come back and fill in the three boxes below.
Your call on it
Pull it together
Personality is one of seven things this course measures about you. On its own it's thin. Next to your values, your interest code, or your skills, it starts to mean something.
Where this leaves you, for now
Then: 1. Paste into the writing box under this tool. 2. Press Submit. 3. Open Grades and check this assignment doesn't show a dash.
Separate and optional: your discussion starter
The discussion this module asks what clicked. If you write it here, the tool keeps it with your other work. It has its own box and its own Copy button so it never ends up in the assignment by mistake.
