The brain is a very complex part of our bodies. Learning about how the brain works can be challenging. Sometimes, people believe wrong ideas about the brain, which can be called "neuromyths." Here are some common neuromyths that people think are true but are not: (1) Learning Styles: Some people think that students learn best in one way, like only by seeing things, hearing things, or doing things with their hands. But that is not true. (2) Teaching to Learning Styles: Some people think teachers should explain lessons in a way that matches how a student likes to learn. This does not really help students learn better. (3) Left-Brain vs. Right-Brain: Some people say if you use your left brain more, you are good at math and logic, and if you use your right brain more, you are creative. This is not true. (4) Handedness and Brain Dominance: It is also not true that if you are right-handed, you use your left brain more, or if you are left-handed, you use your right brain more. (5) Classical Music and Intelligence: Playing classical music to kids will not make them smarter. (6) 10% of the Brain: It is false that people only use 10% of their brain. We use all of it. (7) Infant-Directed Speech: Talking to babies in a high-pitched, slow way, which we often do, is actually good for their development, not harmful. (8) Brain Development Stops in Adolescence: The brain keeps growing and changing even after you become a teenager. (9) Brain Change After Childhood: The brain can keep changing

Right-handedness is the most common type. Right-handed people are more skillful with their right hands. Approximately 90% of people are right-handed. In human biology, handedness is an individual's preferential use of one hand, known as the dominant hand, due to and causing it to be stronger, faster or more dextrous. The other hand, comparatively often the weaker, less dextrous or simply less subjectively preferred, is called the non-dominant hand. In a study from 1975 on 7,688 children in US grades 1–6, left handers comprised 9.6% of the sampl Studies in the U.K., U.S. and Australia have revealed that left-handed people differ from right-handers by only one IQ point, which is not noteworthy ... Left-handers' brains are structured differently from right-handers' in ways that can allow them to process language, spatial relations and emotions in more diverse and potentially creative ways. Also, a slightly larger number of left-handers than right-handers are especially gifted in music and math. A study of musicians in professional orchestras found a significantly greater proportion of talented left-handers, even among those who played instruments that seem designed for right-handers, such as violins. Similarly, studies of adolescents who took tests to assess mathematical giftedness found many more left-handers in the population. Left-handers are overrepresented among those with lower cognitive skills and mental impairments, with those with intellectual disability being roughly twice as likely to be left-handed, as well as generally lower cognitive and non-cognitive abilities amongst left-handed children. Conversely, left-handers are also overrepresented in high IQ societies, such as Mensa. A 2005 study found that "approximately 20% of the members of Mensa are lefthanded, double the proportion in most general populations". Ghayas & Adil (2007) found that left-handers were significantly more likely to perform better on intelligence tests than right-handers and that right-handers also took more time to complete the tests. In a systematic review and meta-analysis, Ntolka & Papadatou-Pastou (2018) found that right-handers had higher IQ scores, but that difference was negligible (about 1.5 points). The prevalence of difficulties in left-right discrimination was investigated in a cohort of 2,720 adult members of Mensa and Intertel by Storfer. According to the study, 7.2% of the men and 18.8% of the women evaluated their left-right directional sense as poor or below average; moreover participants who were relatively ambidextrous experienced problems more frequently than did those who were more strongly left- or right-handed. The study also revealed an effect of age, with younger participants reporting more… Leftie…
