Abstract
There is a common notion that left and right hemispheres have specific functions in processing information New research, however, shows that these functions are rarely exclusive to only one hemisphere and that even in simple tasks it is possible for both hemispheres to be involved For instance, Sousa (2011) points out that although the left and right hemispheres in our brain process information differently, learners process information best if both hemispheres are engaged in the learning As he puts it, just as we could catch more balls using both hands, we catch more information with both hemispheres In this presentation, we will first give an overview of the research on how our brains process information highlighting the fact that learners process information best when the whole brain is engaged Then, we will provide a list of practical strategies for designing learning modules that use a multi-sensory approach and thus stimulate both the left and right hemispheres
