Includes CD-Rom 'Nothing is so exhausting as indecision, and
nothing is so futile..teachers, parents and carers worry that the
decisions that children and young people make might be unwise or
dangerous' - Bertrand Russell 'You'd be hard pushed to find a
better decision-making programme than this excellent set of
books... This series will undoubtedly kick-start conversation, prod
thinking and stimulate classroom debate' - Times Educational
Supplement Magazine Decision making is a skill involving both a
cognitive and an affective process. The ability to: - recognize the
thoughts and feelings; - consider the consequences; - choose the
best outcome; is a highly valued facility leading to resilience,
achievement and responsibility. The skill can be taught and in
these three volumes the authors provide all the materials needed to
teach a course on decision making at each age level. The programme
provides a menu of stories related to the real life experiences of
the young people. Topics are selected to be age appropriate and the
series includes: - Stealing; - Lying; - Social behaviours; - Risks;
- Justice; - Loss, Grief and Bereavement; - Prejudice; - First
love; - Disability; - Leaving home; - Family relationships. The
teacher notes indicate 'stopping points' where reflection and
discussion is encouraged. A choice of endings is offered or the
young people can develop their own ideas about what might happen
next. The course can be introduced at any age or used to develop
the skills through school life from early years to the teens. Other
books in the series include Margaret Collins's First Choices and
Phil Carradice's Good Choices.
