Do the following descriptions of decision-making seem familiar? 

Becoming overwhelmed by life-changing decisions—such as choosing between job opportunities or colleges.
Relying on outdated habits that no longer serve you—like always waiting for others to guide your choices.
Losing focus on complex tasks—such as struggling to organize your thoughts for a detailed research paper.
Feeling discouraged by slow progress—like doubting yourself when fitness goals take longer to achieve than expected.

The video includes the following topics and lesson objectives:
Cognitive Domain (Knowledge, Understanding, and Application)
1.1. Identify the role of the Prefrontal Cortex (PFC) in deliberate decision-making and explain how it supports working memory, focus, and managing complex or goal-oriented tasks.Example for students: "The PFC helps you stay focused on writing an essay by holding ideas in your mind and deciding which points to include."
1.2. Recognize how the Anterior Cingulate Cortex (ACC) triggers a shift from automatic to deliberate thinking when it detects that a situation is new, unfamiliar, or not progressing as expected.Example for students: "When you realize your usual way of studying isn’t working for a harder test, the ACC helps switch your thinking to find a better method."

Affective Domain (Receiving, Responding, and Valuing)
2.1. Acknowledge the importance of cognitive control and deliberate thinking for managing decisions that are challenging, unfamiliar, or require careful planning.Example for students: "Planning a group project requires deliberate thinking to make sure everyone knows their role and deadlines are met."
2.2. Express appreciation for how the PFC combines information and resources to help you stay on track with decisions that align with your goals.Example for students: "The PFC helps you manage distractions when deciding to finish homework before hanging out with friends."
