Abstract

Five left-handed, seventh grade science students enrolled in a small rural school setting were the study's participants. Each participant experienced four different teaching methods throughout the year. The different teaching methods were used to determine what helped the left-hander learn. It was found that the left-handed students felt they learned best through hands-on and visual teaching methods. These teaching methods could be utilized by teachers to help all the students in a classroom become successful.
