Being Responsible: D.A.R.E WHOOSH!! a police car sped by me at record-breaking speed, which reminded me of the police officer who came every Wednesday to teach and tell about Dare. D.A.R.E stands for define, assess, respond and evaluate. Dare is something everyone in the world should know about! It teaches many things, from alcohol to bullying. When we started Dare we learned about making decisions, then how the Dare decision-making model can help us. We learned about 16 different things in Dare and I think all these topics should be General Knowledge to everyone. The reason why I think this is because it is fine if you get bad grades. It is fine if you flunk, because in the real world the important thing is to be a good human. Dare encourages students to be a good person. Until now we have learned about alcohol,drugs,tobacco,methamphetamine, stress, communication, pressure and bullying. We did all this and learned some crazy facts such as: did you know that there are 75,000 alcohol related deaths each year in the U.S and that more …show more content…

One of them is the Dare Decision making model. This resource helps everyone by helping them make important decisions. For me it helped me stay calm and make important decisions such as staying away from places where people smoke. This model has helped me every time I came upon a decision which I couldn’t respond to. There was this one time where I was coming home from school and saw an adult smoking a cigarette He came near me and asked me whether I wanted to smoke with him or not. I quickly changed the subject and walked home briskly. It also kept me calm when my younger brother destroyed my best NERF gun. Instead of giving him a slap in the face (he deserved it) I thought about how I could turn this negative situation into a positive one. It kept me calm and helped me solve my homework once too! This tool is a very useful one and I think that I should remember this tool and use it my entire

In The Office season 5, episode 10, a seemingly simple decision is turned into a complicated one because decision-making is not Michael Scott’s best skill. In this episode, Oscar discovers a surplus that must be spent so that it does not affect the budget for the next year. Oscar feels that this should be spent on a new copier, while Pam thinks that the money would be better spent on new chairs. At any other company this would be a programmed decision but at Dunder Mifflin it is a non-programmed decision. It is non-structured because it is not a decision that Michael has had to make before.

A nonrational model of decision making occurred prior to the disaster on the BP oil rig that resulted in eleven deaths. BP and Transocean were involved on that tragic day, and neither company appeared to understand what was occurring, and they certainly could not agree. The teams in charge of making key decisions did not possess full information, and they did not understand or agree on what the data or occurrences foreshadowed. Due to the horrific ending due to the decisions that day, the garbage can model specifically seems appropriate in this situation.

It is easy for teens to come up with a reason as to why they began drinking because they have been asked so many times. Escobedo, Cherba, and Waweiler states, “Established patterns of alcohol use may play a major role in decision making that proceeds to drinking and driving among adolescents” (976). Therefore, drinking should not be for everyone if you don’t know the full consequences and don’t know how to maintain your liquor. Here are three main reasons why teens do alcohol or any other drug for that matter. Cristol states, “teens blame their parents for half of their reason for drinking, 29 % blame their peer group, 2.5 % blame the media, and 2% blame the alcohol industry”(15).

The diversity of student backgrounds, abilities and learning styles makes each person unique in the way he or she reacts to information. The intersection of diverse student backgrounds and active learning needs a comfortable, positive environment in which to take root. Dr. King continues by explaining, “Education which stops with efficiency may prove the greatest menace to society. The most dangerous criminal may be the man gifted with reason, but with no morals.” From back then to today’s society, kids are failing because they lack those morals that they need to succeed.

In a world surrounded by choices, people are confronted with easy-to-make and, conversely, challenging decisions. A decision can be influenced by one’s own experience, logic, and feelings.
