Do you know things without being able to explain how or why? Do you solve problems in unusual ways? Do you think in pictures rather than in words? If so, you are not alone. One-third of the population thinks in images. You may be one or you may live with one. If you teach, it is absolutely certain that some of your studentsprobably the ones you arent reachingare visual-spatial learners. Dr. Linda Silverman coined the term "visual-spatial learner" in 1981 to describe the unique gifts of people who think in images. They get the big picture because they see the world through artists eyes. They remember what they see, but forget what they hear. Theyre disorganized, cant spell and have no sense of time, but they have an infectious sense of humor, wild imaginations and can lose themselves completely in the joy of the moment. A visual-spatial learner created the computer and the Internet, the vivid displays at the Olympics, and the International Space Station. Upside-Down Brilliance: The Visual-Spatial Learner is the blueprint for parenting, teaching and living with these delightfully different beings. It is also a manual for discovering and honoring your own hidden gifts.Learn practical ways to recognize, reach, and develop visual-spatial abilities!* Imagination* Visualization* Intuitive Knowledge* Invention* Discovery* Spirituality* Three-dimensional Perception* Artistic Expression* Scientific & Technological Proficiency* Emotional Responsiveness* Holistic & Whole-part Thinking* Holographic Understanding
