Readings week 11



This week I will be talking about the readings posted by Tori’s group. The group posted a reading titled left vs. right which side are you on? This reading was very interesting simply because it was something new. The reading taught me a bunch of new things that I didn’t know prior for example; I didn’t know that the left hemisphere of the brain was the rational side and that the right hemisphere was the intuitive side. While reading this article I was wondering which side I was on. I read each section and I couldn’t figure out which side I was on because I possessed traits on each. Once I knew that I could not choose a side I decided to take the test that would help me choose a side.
When taking the test it listed about 15 questions that asked a variety of different things. Proceeding this test it told me that I was on the left side. The reason being I prefer organization, i prefer talking and writing, multiple choice tests, I have good problem solving skills, by logically and sequentially looking at the parts of things. Some examples of these reasons are, I learn by writing things down and asking questions. Open ended questions are harder than a multiple choice test that’s why I prefer a multiple choice. My problem skills I use in math which is the subject I excel in the most, math comes easy to me compared to other subjects.
In conclusion the reading was a good one, simply because it provided new information to me. The reading informed me that I am on the left side. It informed I was on the left side because I solve problems in a linear manner by lining pieces up in logical order in order to draw a conclusion.
