Explore the step-by-step thought process, from analytic reasoning to holistic intuition. Understand the importance of logic in drawing conclusions and using language effectively. Delve into math, science, art, and music to see how creativity and linear reasoning intersect. Learn about left and right hemisphere specialization and challenge yourself with hemispheric activities. Discover the role of the Corpus Callosum in brain function and the fascinating insights from split brain patients. Witness how vision is processed in the divided brain. Uncover the decreasing trend of left-handers and its implications in brain research.

Analytic thought Step by step process Logic Conclusions based upon a logical or consecutive order Language Using words to name/describe/define Math & Science Number use, awareness of time, symbols, facts & linear reasoning Holistic thought Seeing “big” picture before understanding details Intuition Insight based upon incomplete patterns or “hunches” Creativity Demonstrative with minimal word use, understanding relationships Art & Music Putting pieces together to form “wholes” Left/Right Hemisphere Specialization LEFT (a little bigger) RIGHT
Take your dominant hand and make a clock-wise circle. • Now take your opposite foot and circle it counter-clockwise • Easy, right? • Now try and do the same thing, but with both dominant hand/foot • Try these hemispheric activities…
