8 Blog Exercise: Visual Thinking

The above test was attempted by my girlfriend. She chose choice "E" because she believed that the order followed a square, triangle, square sequence. It took her about 2-3 minutes to answer.

The above test was taken by a classmate in one of my other classes and he chose option "C" because he felt the pattern followed a "line, shape, line, shape" pattern but he was unsure because even though option "C" is a line, it still forms the shape of a triangle. It took my friend about 5 minutes to decide on a final answer.

The above test was performed by my older brother, and he was able to find all 11 squares in the image. It took my older brother about 10 minutes to solve because he said that at first he didn't notice the larger squares, and he kept recounting.

The above test was performed by my younger brother and he was only able to find 7 squares. It took my younger brother about 5 minutes to solve because he said he tried to work fairly quickly, and that some of the colors would throw him off. He had failed to notice the 4 other squares because he said that he didn't think about them or pay attention to them.
