THE LEFT BRAIN VS THE RIGHT BRAIN: HOW DOES THIS IMPACT LEARNING Name: Course: Professor Name: (December 23, 2011) The left brain vs. the right brain: how does this impact learning The brain is a complicate part of the body; however scientists continue to unravel the mysteries surrounding it and how it functions. Through research scientists are able to explain the functions of the brain and more significantly the left and right parts of the brain. The human being has a hemispheric dominance which is the right and left parts of the brain; while the left side of the brain controls the right side of the body the right side of the brain controls the left side of the body. The corpus callosum connects the hemisphere and is involved in sharing information at the same time the celebral cortex accommodates the human rational functions (Chiarello, et al. 2011). The right and left parts of the brain has very distinct functions and have different abilities in the way the impact the learning process. This paper tackles the left brain vs. the right brain and how it impact learning in humans. The human brain is responsible for the thoughts, memory, actions, experience and feelings in a person; this is the reason that makes it shape the human life. In understanding the brain anatomy then the function can be understood. The uppermost layer is the cerebral cortex which covers the cerebrum; this part is the gray matter which is responsible for thinking, producing and understanding langua...
