Tonight I'd like us to focus on a specific subset of thinking skills:
deciding and judgment. I've lined up several examples of existing
WebQuests that engage those skills and I've found some very interesting
resources that will make it easier for us to teach these skills more
effectively in future WebQuests.

This session is based on a presentation I did a few weeks ago for the
first time at the CUE conference in Anaheim. Here's the website that
sums it up.

BernieD says, "We'll be going into some of those links in a few minutes,
so no need to go there now."

KrissyL says, "Thanks - came up just fine."

MichelleL says, "Mine didn't"

NancyAG says, "Mine is ok."

MichelleL says, "Found it!! :-)"

SarahWL says, "Got it"

Tami [guest] says, "My link came up."

A bit of background first. Why are decision-making and judgment skills
important? Seems to me that there are several reasons...

1. We make decisions in everyday life, and sometimes have to reconcile
our choices with choices made by those around us.

2. We expect professionals to have a rich set of decision-making
strategies. In a knowledge-based economy, that's largely what we're
paying for.
