Your brain is separated into 2 halves, the right and the left. The concept of right brain and left brain thinking developed from the research in the late 1960s of an American psychobiologist Roger W Sperry. The left side of your brain controls the rights side of your body and the right controls the left side of your body. Typically many people are stronger with one side of the brain than the other. Each side of your brain controls different things.
Left: (Verbal) Right: (Visual)
Logical Creative
Mathematical Artistic
Works in liner sequences Sees the big picture
Rational Intuitive
Analytical Random
Objective Takes risks
By looking at the list of each many can tell what they are or what they think others might be. There are ways to find out exactly which side of your brain is more dominate. The following website will take you to a test to help you figure it out. http://www.wherecreativitygoestoschool.com/vancouver/left_right/rb_test.htm
The right and left brain concept is ways that you learn and interpret things. If your left handed does not mean the your right brain is dominate. You use both hands to do things so the brain doesn't know dominance.
If your right or left brained doesn't mean your better than the other it's just the way you learn. When both sides of your brain work together your get a better learning experience.
