Learning Goal

We are learning to understand the decisions we make, the decision-making process and factors that might influence our decisions.


 

“Our lives are a sum of the choices we make” ~ Dr. Wayne Dyer

Agree or disagree? Why?

What are the decisions we might have to make

  • As teens;
  • As young adults;
  • As older adults?

We will look at our decision-making process, given the following scenario:

You have graduated high school and are off to college/university. Where will you live?

Once you think you have an answer that works for you, we will look at a process to help you make decisions. Does this process change your decision?

Next we will brainstorm factors that might influence how we make decisions. Add your own examples.

Lastly, we will look at some common decision strategies. You will choose one to illustrate in more detail and present.

Reflect:

What decision-making strategies have you used? How well did the strategy work? What factors influenced your decision?
