Posted by Success Friend on 7/31/07 Obviously Johnny is exhibiting signs of right-brained thinking and creativity. My point is that we need to focus on the intuitive and creative side of the brain more often to foster greater learning in all students. All standardized testing is left-brained oriented. Do your research. Maybe JOhnny will be an artist or filmmaker. You can never label a kid and assume he will work at McDonalds. Look at how many greats have very little formal education. It's not about memorizing facts and equations, it's about learning how to think and use your mind in more productive ways.
