For this module, I would like you to keep a decision log. You do not need to write in it every day, but it
would be good to make at least 5 entries per two week module. You will turn in your log at the end of the
module in the SLP slot.
For this module, pay attention to your own decision processes. On at least 5 occasions, identify a different
mental model that you use on a regular basis. Discuss how this mental model affects your decision-making. For
each entry:
Describe the mental model.
Why do you think you hold this mental model? Where did it come from?
Do you think using this mental model enhances your decision making – or detracts from it?
