right brain domination of problem solver

I read it somewhere that our left brain is responsible for our intelligence and the right portion of it determines our artistic abilities. This might be a contradiction to your discussion over here... :)

Highest counting,imagining,etc be controlled by right brain.You can use your right brain more by using your left hand to do something you want to do.For exemple writing and using chopsticks by your left hand.All of this my teacher ever tolk me.

The psychological theory mentions different characteristics of right and left brain. Right brain is the more logical brain and is the one that is good at science, mathematics, eye for details and tries to reason everything. This is usually very strong in Scientists and Mathematicians of the world. Left Brain is the more emotional brain and is the one that is good at relationships, creativity and big picture. This is usually very strong in politicians, philosophers and community leaders. Cheers! Ram

The way I understand it the left brain is the creative side and the right brain handles all the other things necessary to life. I have been wondering how this works for people who have had their dominant hand switched by teachers. I understand that people who are left handed are left brain dominant. And so, I don't know if that means their whole brain set up is different or not. Seems to me, this could cause some terrible confusion for the person if school attempted to make them be someone they were not.
