Right Brain vs. Left Brain
This theory of the structure and functions of the mind suggests that the two different sides of the brain control two different "modes" of thinking. It also suggests that each of us prefers one mode over the other.
The following table illustrates the differences between left-brain and right-brain thinking:
Left Brain
Quantitative
Fact-based
Planned
Organized
Logical
Sequential
Rational
Analytical
Objective
Looks at parts
Right brain
Random
Intuitive
Holistic
Intergrating
Emotional
Interpersonal
Feeling-based
Kinaesthetic
Subjective
Looks at wholes
Most individuals have a distinct preference for one of these styles of thinking. Some, however, are more whole-brained and equally adept at both modes. In general, schools tend to favor left-brain modes of thinking, while downplaying the right-brain ones. Left-brain scholastic subjects focus on logical thinking, analysis, and accuracy. Right-brained subjects, on the other hand, focus on aesthetics, feeling, and creativity.
