Introduction

This spatial reasoning resource encourages students to absorb new and possibly abstract information and apply it appropriately. It is directly related to problem solving and critical thinking, two major components of cognitive aptitude that have been identified as in- demand skills in the resources sector. Spatial reasoning is encountered in technical or trade training courses, or on the job throughout all technical or trade positions. It is included in apprentice aptitude tests as part of the recruitment process.
