Perception is the ability to become aware of something through the five senses. Recently in class we learned about the five stages of perception: stimulation, organization, interpretation, memory, and recall. To better understand your perception of reality you must understand the five stages. There are different kinds of perception, how you view yourself and how others view you are the two kinds that we talked about most. How you view yourself and how others view you can be very different. To better understand this we did a small exercise called a Johari Window. The Johari Window shows what you and others know about you, what others know about you but you don't, things that you know about yourself and others don't, and things that neither you or others know about you. We each completed a Johari Window about ourselves and then added to others' Johari Windows. It was interesting to see what others thought about you that you didn't.

This post proves you have a strong understanding of perception as well as why we did the Johari window exercise. Only a couple MUGS errors in this post, too. 11/12 earned
