1.1 Literature review of previous studies

Introversion is used to describe where a student focuses his or her attention in the learning process. Introverts tend to focus their perception and judgment on the inner world of their mind. They are energized by what is going on and usually prefer to communicate more by writing than by talking. This actually means introverts are such people who prefer communication in the written form than in the way to talk. Introverts tend to focus their attention on thought and ideas and are more comfortable when they are expected to spend most of their time just thinking. Thus, Introverts prefer to learn through reflecting rather than acting.
