Professor Doggerall Says:

What label does society, and the educational system in particular, attach to a pupil who appears to have absolutely no aptitude for maths and science?  In the first instance we could refer them to Mr and Mrs Einstein and ask them about their school dropout son Albert.  Or your could refer them to Woody Norris:

'When Woody Norris won the Lemelson-MIT Prize in 2005, his official prize bio called him "a classic independent inventor ... self-educated, self-funded and self-motivated." His mind seems to race toward things the world needs, though we don't know it yet: a nonlethal acoustic weapon that has been used to ward off pirates, a bone-induction headset, radar that can scan the human body, a tapeless tape recorder ...

Norris' educational background is a key to his restless mind. He is not quite "self-educated" -- he's taken many classes, but always at his own speed and in his own style, studying the things he knew he wanted to know and working closely with professors. Ironically, it's a model that cutting-edge colleges are now embracing.'
ted Ideas worth spreading
The logic, linear brain hemisphere and the gestalt hemisphere always work together, however, as we know, there is always a degree of dominance.
