These lessons, designed to be used with the Himalayan Decision video (and after teachers have received training in the fundamentals of good decision making), help motivate students’ interest in decision making and introduce students to the key concepts of decision quality.
Is this the overview you were referring to? I don’t see any details (other than the presence of a video) that give me any real information about the lesson that would distinguish it from what I would have used for a prior.
I should have said lesson plans though, I’ll edit.
Maybe it’s because I’ve taught primary students before, but those overviews by themselves give me enough information to understand what a lesson along those lines would look like.
I clearly didn’t follow the path of links far enough. I agree that these overviews give much more detail, enough to give a much better idea about the content.
I now agree with you that the original poster should have found these and updated significantly away from a simple prior when assessing how effective the organization is. At the very least I’m noticing activities that are not so terribly cheesy that they turn students off and cross-domain connections at the core of lessons—I would guess that the lessons themselves are worthwhile.
On the other hand, the criticism that “if they can teach you how to make good decisions, why haven’t their decisions made them better off?” seems especially pertinent now.

There are five sub-headings, the latter two of which have several lessons.
Like this one. And this one.
