Students will demonstrate an understanding of how the Automatic Decision-Making System conserves cognitive energy by recognizing and explaining the role of habit and routine in maintaining stability, as evidenced by providing examples of personal habits in a short reflection.
Students will observe and record three routine behaviors in their daily lives that illustrate the operation of the Automatic Decision-Making System, providing brief descriptions of each and its role in minimizing cognitive load.
Lesson 2.2
By the end of the lesson, learners will be able to recognize and list at least five examples of common automatic decision-making behaviors, such as quick decisions, reliance on intuition, and simplified reasoning, with 90% accuracy.
Lesson 2.3
By the end of the lesson, learners will demonstrate the ability to evaluate the impact of outdated or irrelevant concepts on their decision-making by identifying specific instances where past concepts led to poor decisions and discussing how these could have been improved through concept reevaluation.
By the end of the lesson, learners will be able to utilize concepts as standards of measurement to assess progress toward an unmet need, identifying how these concepts inform action steps and guide their evaluation of success or failure in a given context.
Lesson 2.4
When presented with a scenario involving a routine decision (e.g., selecting an outfit or planning a route), the learner will accurately apply the QuickSTEPS process by using exclusion to eliminate options, select the most suitable solution, and confirm the solution’s availability with 95% accuracy.
