How important is spatial visual skills to normal brain development?

My personal experience with 3-Dimensional designing

Creating and making things has always meant a lot to me. The self efficacy it has given me has transferred to self confidence in all areas of my life. To envision a 3-dimensional object in my mind and create it gives me a great deal of freedom. From clothing to furniture and home decorations, my treasured belongings were always original and one of a kind. In school I scored high on spatial relationship tests. I always had an interest in related subjects like ceramics and architecture. I have kept a “Can Do” attitude towards most everything. I look at all sides of a situation and come up with a plan or solution. Designing 3-dimensional objects has had such an important influence on my life that I want to learn about its effects on others and their development. So I started on my quest for the truth.

Is learning to use 3-Dimensional thinking important to our development?

Ethics Statement

In order to be the most effective Art Educator I will carefully plan my curriculum by research and observation of successful trends currently being used. I will be flexible to study situations in my classroom to improve the educational experience for my students. I will continue to further my knowledge through research and training so that I can be current and responsive as a teacher. In conducting research and teaching I will respect the rights of individuals and use a humanistic approach to research. I will always inform and get consent from any people I may observe or interview in my pursuit of knowledge. As an aspiring Art Educator I see the importance of many aspects of Art Education on the development of students and will continue to dedicate myself to be the best informed and prepared I can be for my students.
