In this final session, Kelly Short Raspberry discusses teaching responsible decision-making skills. The session covers three types of decision makers: no decision makers, snap decision makers, and responsible decision makers. It outlines a five-step decision-making process: recognizing a decision, gathering information, weighing outcomes, making the decision, and evaluating results. The session also provides strategies for teaching these skills, including empathy, modeling, scenarios, videos, and games. The session concludes with a call for feedback and additional resources for educators.
