| People
approach learning in a way that is natural to their inborn thinking style. Scientific
research identified two distinct groups of people whose thinking styles, and therefore
also learning needs, are antipodal; analytics and holistics.
Strong analytics (
whose who tend to use their left brain hemisphere) are people who enjoy logic, details,
and follow sequential steps. They need frequent written feedback, and are often good at
mathematics and word games.
Strong holistics (
right-brain processors ), on the other hand, need to have an overall picture before they
can assimilate facts. These students need to understand why something is important before
learning it. Strong holistics tend to be good at the arts.
