I read an article from Tori’s group. I was very interested in the first article which discussed the characteristics of left brained people and right brained people. I had heard of the concept, but I never learned a lot until I read this article. This article really interested me and I even related it to my project’s topic involving learning styles and intelligences.
When I read the article, many characteristics related to me. Overall, I matched many more characteristics of someone who is Right Brained. Right brained people tend to be bad with directions. I myself am very bad with directions, because I learn visually through land marks. Another thing that made me feel more right brained was when I read about how a right brained person would go on gut instincts in a test. Whether I was to study or not, I always would choose the answer that caught my eye first. Also, it mentions how right brainers can tell the approximate time without looking at the clock. This jumped out on me because I do that all the time. I used to think I was crazy until I read that idea in this article. After the article I feel I was able to characterize some meaning into the common concepts discussed in the article.
The article left me even more curious about whether I was left brained or right brained. Even though the article gave me enough information, I wanted a second source. So, on the page that the article was on had many links. I chose the one with the quiz, which determined further into being left or right brained. I took the quiz and was pretty surprised. I got 9 answers favoring left and 9 favoring right. This meant that I got a tie. I read further and the quiz said I leaned more on the left brained. So I am a little unsure as to whether I am a leftie or a rightie.
