ACTIVITY: Here Is The Quick and Simple Test (Simple Test For Dominant Learning Style) To Find
out which quadrant your dominant traits found. Choose 10 of the descriptions found on the
table below. The highest number of descriptions found in a quadrant is your dominant
thinking and learning style. If the numbers are almost evenly distributed, it means that your
dominant style resides in all four quadrants, and therefore you are using all four quadrants
of your brain to become a whole brain thinker and learner.

Tony Buzan – a British psychology author and consultant who developed the technique in
creating such map, popularized the use of the phrase “mind map”
Mind maps are useful visual tools that help in linking together concepts and
information in such a way that the interconnection and interrelation of these are clearly laid
out and easily accessible to help in problem solving and for reference and review.
1.) Write the tittle of the subject you are exploring in the center of the page and draw a
circle around it. The example shows how someone is brainstorming the actions needed to
deliver a successful presentation.
2.) Draw lines out of the center circle to label major subject matters about making
presentations, like: Audience, Topic, Visual Aids, Location, and Delivery.
3.) Draw additional lines that will connect to the lines for major topics. For example, under
Audience, you would like to describe and list some background information about them
such as their demographics, expectations, knowledge levels, concerns, and benefits
required.
4.) Then, for individuals’ facts or ideas, draw lines out from the appropriate heading line and
label them.
5.) As you come across new information, link it into the mind map appropriately.
A complete mind map may have main topic lines radiating in all directions from the
center. Sub-topics and facts will branch off these, like branches and twigs from the trunk of
a tree. You do not need to worry about the structure you produce, as this will evolve of its
own accord.
Use color to separate different ideas – this will help you to separate ideas where
necessary. It also helps you to visualize the mind map for recall.
Use cross-linkages – information in one part of a mind map may relate to another
part. Here, you can draw lines to show the cross-linkages. This help you see how one
part of the subject affects another.
Here is an example of a mind map that used the drawings and activities that reflect the
dominant right brain:

REFLECTION:
1.) Base on yourself, using the topic “HOW TO IMPROVE LEARNING” draw two mind maps.
The first one will show the dominant right side of the brain and the other map will illustrate
the left side of the brain.
