    MODULE 8: THE POWERS OF THE MIND

    Our brain has two halves – the right and the left. People using left part of the brain are usually logical and
    analytical. While those who use the right half of the brain are creative, innovative and imaginative. An important
    factor to understanding learning styles is understanding brain functioning. Both sides of the brain can reason,
    but by different strategies, and one side may be dominant over the other.

    A left brain (successive processor) prefers to learn in a step-by-step sequential format, beginning with details
    leading to a conceptual understanding of a skill.

    A right brain (simultaneous processor) prefers to learn beginning with the general concept and then going on
    to specifics.

    Brain Lateralization
    It is a complex and ongoing process by which differing regions of the brain “take-over” the functioning of specific
    behaviors and cognitive skills. Lateralization literally means that certain functions are located (in par or total) on
    one side of the brain.
