In following this assignment, I reviewed and took the “Political Ideology” survey. In taking the survey, I was once again given a “strong liberal” score (and was not surprised with the results). The final score within this survey strongly support the survey taken in class.
ReplyDeleteThe overall results are terribly similar and reaffirmed the liberal ideals that were assumed within my character.

For the assignment I chose to do the Political Ideology survey, which gave me the outcome of a Moderate Liberal. I wasn't sure if I really agreed with it so I decided to also take the Political Typology survey, at the end of the survey the result was Solid Liberal. When I was comparing the surveys the Political Typology and the one we made in class were most alike, to each other and to who I am. I know now that I would rather think about the well being of the people than about the well being of the country.

For the assignment I took the "Political Survey" survey, which states that I am a moderate liberal. Which is what the survey we took in class told me so I suppose that's what I am. I agree with both of them and think I am moderate but leaning towards being a liberal.

I took the Political Ideology Survey, the last one on the list. After finishing this survey, my results showed that I am a moderate! This is almost the exact same result I received from the in-class survey we took a few days ago. I think that overall, my political beliefs fall right in the middle, incorporating many beliefs from both sides.

I took the Political Typology Quiz. My results said I was a Steadfast Conservative. This does not surprise me as this is what I got on the survey we took in class. Overall I am a conservative, with almost all my beliefs falling to the right.

For the blog assignment I took the Political Ideology Survey and I am a Solid Liberal. This does not surprise me too much because I am leaning on the left side as a result to our class demonstration and survey that we took in class. I have some conservative views on certain issues, but overall I am more liberal than I am a conservative. I also read my peers comments on their results for the surveys, and I agree that I care more about the well being for the people over the well being for the country.

I got 10/25 on our class survey and that showed that I was a moderate but more left leaning. Therefore I was not to surprised that my score was not changed

I took the political ideology survey and I got next generation left. This does not surprise me that much. I would describe my views on our country and politics to to mixed, and that is what the survey reflected. This is also what I got on the survey in class.

ReplyDeleteI took the political ideology and my results showed that based on the answers I gave to the questions, I am a moderate. Those results are a little different from the quiz I took in class which showed I'm a strong liberal. I see how I can be seen as a moderate leaning more towards the left because of my differing opinions on certain topics, but I definitely think I'm more liberal than anything else.
ReplyDeleteI took the Political Typology Survey and my results showed that based on the questions I was asked, I am slightly to the left of moderate. The results were the exact same from the survey we took in class. I am not surprised because some of the questions I agreed with were towards the conservative side. So that's why I'm moderate but slightly to the left.

I took the Political Ideology Survey for this assignment, and was not surprised when it said I was a moderate conservative. The results from this survey matched the results from the survey we took in class, showing that I am a bit more conservative (which I agree with).

I took the political survey for this assignment. I was not surprised with the results which said that i was a moderate liberal. The results from the survey in class was the same as this one, but i was more liberal in class.
ReplyDelete-Sarah Ollenburg
I took the Political Ideology Survey for this assignment. I was somewhat surprised with my results. In this survey, I got moderate liberal, but in class I was one of the most liberal students in the class with a score of a 3 out of 25. I believe that I don't have much of an opinion on the questions on this survey like I did with the one we took in class.
ReplyDelete-Jessica Ramer
I took the Political Typology survey and best fit into the group called 'Young Outsider' along with 13% of the public. This group is said to hold a mix of conservative and liberal views however more lean toward the Republican Party than the Democratic Party. This result is comparable to the 12 I scored on the 25 question survey we took in class - moderate. I was left leaning on the survey taken in class but am right leaning on this survey which surprised me. I have always thought of myself as a fairly liberal person.
ReplyDelete- Lakin Hengel
After taking the "Political Compass" survey I found the results matched the survey we took in class almost exactly. I find this quite surprising because my personal beliefs differ from the ideas that I have grown up with hearing from my parents.
ReplyDeleteHannah Rose Widman
I took the Political Ideology survey and It said I was moderate. This didn't come as a surprise to me because after taking the survey in class I was right in the middle just like the political ideology survey. Although id consider myself more liberal.
ReplyDeleteFadumo Abdi
I took the Political Typology survey, and it said I am a "solid liberal." This matches perfectly with my result of the survey we took in class, which was a score of 1. I felt like these quizzes asked very similar questions, so it does not surprise me that both indicated that I am a strong liberal. I learned that as a young person without much financial responsibility, I tend to support helping the poor and strengthening welfare programs.
ReplyDelete-Morgan Streyle
For this assignment, I took the Political Typology survey and the Political Ideology survey. For the Political Typology survey, my result was "solid liberal" and for the Political Ideology survey my result was "moderate liberal. Since my score from the class survey was 7 out of 25, which means I'm a liberal but also at the edge of being moderate, these results do not surprise me at all because they match perfectly with the results from class. I agree I'm very liberal, but since I'm at the fine line between liberal and moderate, there's no doubt I'll be joining the moderate group who still leans to the left in my later years.
ReplyDelete-Sandra Thai
I took The Political Compass survey. For this survey very much like the one we did in class I am pretty liberal scoring a -2.63 but, on this survey it shows I am a little bit more leaning towards middle in which I was farther from the middle in the class survey that was conducted. I strongly believe that I will be liberal throughout my years as an adult, but I can also see as I begin to age and mature more that I could encounter leaning a little more to the left as I learn more about the US government systems.
ReplyDelete- Tarra Seng
I took the political compass survey which showed that I am a left wing libertarian this is about the same as what the survey that I took in class said. I felt the questions in this survey were random and unusual. some I thought were irrelevant
ReplyDelete-Jessie Kolb
I took the Political Typology survey and wasn't surprised when it said I was a "Solid Liberal." It said that I favor the government giving aid to the poor, and the government should do more to solve national problems. Which is exactly how I feel. This survey score matches up very nicely with my score in class the other day, of 6/25, indicating that I was a strong liberal. The questions on this survey and the ones in class were very similar together so when the results on Political Typology said I was a "Solid Liberal" I wasn't surprised. I learned that I fit into the Faith and Family Left category on the Liberal side, which makes me a person with strong support for activist government with conservative attitudes on many social issues. -Sarah Taraba
ReplyDeleteI took the political ideology survey and my results showed that I am not left or right Leaming, I am a moderate. In certain topics I would definitely say I tend to lean a little bit but overall I would definitely consider myself a moderate and that is what my government worksheet also stated me to be. Some things I agree with and some things I absolutely don't so me being a moderate makes most since to me -Hannah Burkholder
ReplyDeleteI took the Political Ideology Survey, it said that I was a moderate liberal. The survey I took in class placed me in the middle. Soo… I think I'm liberal.

For this assignment I took the Political Ideology Survey, it told me that I was moderately liberal. This didn't surprise me at all since my mom is a liberal. As well as that in class we have been talking about how younger people tend to be more liberal and as we get older we tend to become a little bit more conservative. Also we have talked about women as being tending to be more liberal than conservative. Also, it matched my quiz in class so I was not that surprised. - Andrea Johnson
ReplyDeleteI took the Political Ideology Survey and from results I am a moderate. I thought that I would have liberal views on most of the statements, but turns out I am more moderate than I thought. Compared to the survey in class, my results. differed. With the survey in class I scored 5 out of 25 which shows that I am very much a liberal compared to this survey where it shows I am a moderate. I was kind of shocked to find that this survey I took online told me I am a moderate, as I consider myself a very strong liberal. I assume that over the years I have gained some conservative views as I've gotten older, like we talked about in class.

I took the political ideology survey. The results I got on the survey aligned pretty closely with what I got from the in class survey. The online survey said I was a strong liberal. I agree with what the survey said, because I definitely feel that I have strong liberal beliefs. I am not surprised by these results whatsoever.

I took the "Political Ideology Survey", and it told me that I was moderate I'm not that surprised by the result, I was more surprised by the test we took in class because I was the most conservative. So I think I'm just on the left of being a conservative most of the influences probably come from my family they are all a little bit conservative.- Tyler Strain

ReplyDeleteI took the "political ideology survey" and it said that I was Liberal. It said the same thing when I took the survey in class which I got a score of 7/25 which is Liberal. Both surveys were the same nothing changed.
ReplyDelete-Abdi Isse
I took the Political Ideology Survey. My results said I am a moderate, which did not surprise me because I got a 13/25 (also very moderate) on the in class survey. I look at both sides and what if's when I took these surveys. I believe I am very moderate because of that.
ReplyDelete-Nicole Faber
I took the "Political Ideology Survey", and it said that based on your response to the questions on the political ideology survey, you are a moderate. I was very confused because on the survey in class I got 6/25 it stated that I was indeed very much Liberal. The results were very different. It didn't match the one I took in class.
ReplyDelete~Abdi (2nd)
I endevoured on the never ending political ideology survey. When I concluded this survey, it expresses my unprejudiced outcome. Comparing this survey to the other one in class, I established that the overall product of this survey are exceedingly separate and maintain a more liberal character than conservative. I wasn't astound with the results of what I already kinda knew for these surveys.
ReplyDeleteSam Aakre
I took the "Political Ideology Survey". It said that i was a moderate conservative. On the survey we took in class i was also a conservative.
ReplyDeleteThe two surveys say i am conservative and i believe that very much because i the two surveys were similar.
Dylan Hess
I took the political ideology survey and got the result of "moderate". I am confused with this result because the survey we took in class indicated I was much more liberal, with a score of 6/25. These test results are both very different. However, I see myself as a much more moderate person.

I took the "Political Ideology Survey", and it told me that I was moderate conservative, I believe the result to be true and not surprising. I took the survey in class and scored a 15 out of 25, right where this survey had placed me. Both surveys were correct in terms of what I believe in.- Adam Ziemer
ReplyDeleteI took the "Political Ideology Survey", and it told me that I was moderately conservative. I am not surprised by the results. I scored a 16 out of 25, right were the survey we took in class placed me. Bothe surveys were correct because I believe I am more conservative than liberal.-Matt Laughery
ReplyDeleteMy survey of choice was the "Political Typology", which revealed my attitude to be more liberal than conservative. The classroom quiz, determining our opinions on different political situations, didn't give me a clear view of whether or not I was liberal or conservative. My results were both low, confusing what my views meant. The online test also showed differences in sides, but determined based on majority answers I am more liberal. I believe there is truth in this because I am supportive to change and programs that aid to other's well-being such as helping countries in need. Many characteristics of both liberals and conservatives have great intensions and reasoning behind their beliefs but mine seem to shift towards the democratic views.

Hour 2
i took the political ideology quiz which mentioned that i was more moderate. i agree in that and am not surprised that i received what i did with the same results as i got in class. i do believe that i am leaning more towards the liberal side than the conservative side though. i believe in helping others not just in the U.S but in other countries as well and that people should have the same opportunities as the wealth do.

I took the "Political Survey" and my results were fairly left leaning. My results were very surprising because when I took the survey in class, I was very left leaning. However, this time I wasn't too far from the middle so I would most likely be considered a moderate liberal. My ideals seem to revolve around helping those in need and wanting the government to provide services to help society as a whole.
ReplyDelete- Amy Louprasong
I took the political ideology survey and my results showed that I am a moderate. On the in class survey I scored a 7/25 so the results from this survey matched that pretty well. In this survey I was slightly more moderate than the in class one, but not by much. I learned that my views on fiscal policy tend to be more left leaning and my views on social issues tend to be more right leaning so there is no surprise that I fall somewhere in the middle when talking about my ideals as a whole.

ReplyDeleteI took the "Political Survey" and my results were more moderate compared to the in class essay I took. I was more liberal for the in class essay with a score of 3/25 but after taking this survey there was more of a surprise to discover that I am more moderately left-leaning. Overall I am still more liberal when comparing the 2 surveys as a whole

I took the Political Ideology Survey and the results say I am a moderate conservative. I am not surprised by this as I had believed I was moderately conservative prior to even learning about political ideology. The results of the Political Ideology Survey are consistent with the results I received on the in-class survey.

During this assignment, I took the Political Ideology Survey. The results say I'm moderate, but this doesn't surprise me at all because in government class we took a survey, and the results were moderate as well. Even though i was leaning more towards liberal, my views also lead me to be conservative. - Brandon Ngeth
ReplyDeleteI took the Political Ideology Survey and it showed that I am a moderate. Even though my in class survey showed me more as a conservative, I believe that this one is more accurate because I do agree with different parties on different issues.
ReplyDelete-Sam Schmid
I chose the Political Ideology Survey and the results said that I was a moderate. Likewise, the survey that we took in class also showed I was a moderate but it also told me that I was slightly more on the liberal moderate side. I think that the scoring sounds right on both of these quizzes because I am usually able to understand both parties' reasoning on different topics and I tend to agree with different parties depending on what the issue is.
ReplyDeleteThe test l took labeled me as a moderate conservative. The quiz and the test were both fairly accurate in labeling me, l feel as if even though l am a conservative l can still relate to some liberal ideas and thoughts. It is nice to know what l am considered when it comes to political ideology.
ReplyDeleteThe survey I took was the political ideology survey. After completing the survey, it showed me that I was moderate in my political views just like the one I took in class. Its pretty surprising to see that none of my opinions had changed in my political views but honestly I would like to be moderate but a little leaning to the liberal side.

ReplyDeleteI took the Political Survey. I turned out to be more moderate than Liberal. This sort of surprised me as I was fairly Liberal in class. But overall it does make sense to me as I agree and disagree with both Liberal's and Conservatives fairly equally, with a slight Liberal leaning point of view.
ReplyDeleteI took the political survey. I was more towards the liberal side. This was the same in class I was on the liberal side the majority of the time. I consider myself as a liberal.

Political Ideology Survey- While taking this political survey it rated me at moderate. Meaning i am between both liberal and Conservative, my comment on this is that i am not surprised where i stand seeing that i am Asian American and still young. Still shock to see that i swing a little bit more towards Conservative.
