learning about the elements of good decision making, students receive an engaging introduction to the theme of good decision making that sets the stage for further development of the topic.
The Decision Demonstration has been run with audiences from young adolescents (6th grade) to Chief Executives, in a variety of ways, with similarly positive results. It provides an engaging spectacle where participants do predictably irrational things and where the tools of decision science and decision quality can be quickly revealed as powerful ways to understand decision-making. It is a great introduction, overview, and demonstration of the fun and surprising learning ahead.
