A human brain has two lobes – the left one and the right. The left brain is the reasoning and logic centre while the right brain is the visualization centre. The left brain processes information at a much slower rate than the right brain. So these educational methodologies are trying to develop the right brain much more so that overall there is a big improvement in his cognitive skills.
