If You Make A Change

Worksheet Description

The “Decision Making” worksheet is a valuable educational resource that aids students in evaluating the potential outcomes of their choices. It guides them to consider the ramifications of both action and inaction in a structured and clear manner.

The first section of the worksheet invites students to articulate the change they are contemplating, setting a clear intention for the decision-making exercise. The following sections, “If I DO make a change” and “If I DON’T make a change,” are designed to help students methodically weigh the positive and negative outcomes of their decision. By listing the “Things That Will Get Better” and “Things That Will Get Worse” for both scenarios, students can visualize the immediate and long-term effects of their choices.

This reflective process is crucial in developing critical thinking and foresight, allowing students to approach decisions with a balanced perspective. Engaging with this worksheet equips students with a practical framework for making informed decisions that consider both short-term satisfaction and long-term benefits, fostering responsible and thoughtful decision-making skills.
