9. In the article Drawing on an Outdated Theory by Jess Dorn, one finds the following quote:

It is sometimes said that our brain consists of a left hemisphere that excels in intellectual, rational, verbal, and analytical thinking and a right hemisphere that excels in sensory discrimination and in emotional, nonverbal, and intuitive thinking. However, in the normal brain, with extensive commissural interconnections, the interaction of the two hemispheres is such that we cannot dissociate clearly their specialized functions.

Why is the theory more of a useful analogy at this point? Explain

10. Why should kids draw?

11. Which learning theory do you identify the most with and why?
