CONCLUSIONS/CLAIMS DIGITAL NOTEBOOK

Some of the participants found that they were switching sides of the body. This was then recorded. Their patterns were R L L, L R L, L R R, ect. This meant both of the hemispheres worked together to complete each task given to them.

My hypothesis was correct: the participants used their left hemisphere which controls the right side of the body meaning they are right handed/foot.

STEPS

DIGITAL NOTEBOOK

When the evidence was record I noticed that most of the This meant that not only that both of the hemispheres only control one side of the body but they also work together to complete the task they were given.

participants were as patterns. Instead of the recording to be

R R R or L L L (all right and left) is was more of R L L, L R L, L R R ect. This meant that not only that both of the hemispheres only

control one side of the body but they also work together to complete the task they were given.

This experiment could help in the future to help other students if they have the same question or help the people who want to test out themselves or other people to see if right or left brained. What could have changed where maybe the activities and have gotten more participants to make more data and see if it my hypothesis would change.
