Abacus' is an ancient computing
methodology developed in China
wherein students learn to solve
mathematical problems using a very
simple instrument called 'abacus'.
Basic mathematical operations like
addition, subtraction, multiplication
and division are solved by simple
movement of beads in this
instrument.
BENEFITS OF ABACUS
• Fosters a greater sense towards
numbers
• Increases speed and
accuracy
• Boosts up memory power.
• Prepares the brain and nervous system for optional
performance.
• Promotes concentration, comprehension and imagination - thereby improves overall
performance.
• Activates right brain tremendously
• Trains to face competition from early hood.
• Sharpens the learning power.
• Deputes to participate in International competition.
• Improves efficiency and provides a sense of achievement & confidence
What Is Left Brain - Right Brain Theory?
• According to the theory of left-brain or right-
brain dominance, each side of the brain
controls different types of thinking.
Additionally, people are said to prefer one type
of thinking over the other.
RIGHT BRAIN
Random
Intuitive
Holistic
Synthesizing
Subjective
Look at wholes
LEFT BRAIN
Logical
Sequential
Rational
Analytical
Objective
Look at Part
In general, schools tend to favor left-brain modes of thinking,
while downplaying the right-brain ones. Left-brain scholastic
subjects focus on logical thinking, analysis, and accuracy.
Right-brained subjects, on the other hand, focus on aesthetics,
feelings, and creativity.
The right brain-left brain theory grew out of the work of
Roger W. Sperry, who was awarded the Nobel Prize in
1981
