Chapter 1 - Right Brain Rising

So what do you think?

As we complete the first chapter of the book I want you to think about the four key differences between the L-Directed and R-Directed thinking. (Located at the end of chapter 1)

Lets analyze our thinking again.
  1. Look at the following image - is it spinning clockwise or counter clockwise?

2. Answer the questionnaire located at this link.

Again think about whether you are more of a L-Directed and R-Directed thinker/learner.

Please answer the following discussion question in 200 words or more using a "level 3" writing format.

  1. Why do you think it is important that we learn about how the brain functions?
  2. How do you believe that this will improve your learning as a student?
  3. Using examples from the chapter describe the trends that jobs are beginning to follow.
Remember these are your jobs which you will be applying for once you graduate from college.
