It eliminates the conflict of group decision making if an answer or idea is unable to be agreed upon.<\/p>\n<p>The Decision Dice would be included in a community supplies station at each table group. The dice could be used to roll to see what number at the table must go get supplies when each student is assigned a group number. The dice can also be used for deciding when the group cannot agree on. For example if the group cannot decide whether to do their project topic on the study of ostriches or the study of panda. They could roll the dice and say odds means ostriches and evens mean pandas. It allows them to decide when they cannot come to a clear agreement. This tool would work for 3-5th grade the best. I believe this is a great strategy to help students decide.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"240\" height=\"160\" src=\"https:\/\/inside.ewu.edu\/managementtoolbox\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/204\/2018\/11\/dice-2.jpg\" class=\"size-medium alignright wp-image-441\" alt=\"\" \/>The phase that relates the most to the Decision Dice is the Supportive Phase because it allows students to make decisions for themselves. The dice support the students by allowing them to make a decision faster and have more time to work. It also allows student freedom to not have to be dependent on getting the teacher&#039;s opinion on what they should do for a task. This also helps the teacher not have to take time to argue back and forth with students and gives them a solution to solve the issue themselves. This supports student-centered theory because the students are in charge of making their own decision and only need to involve the teacher if it is absolutely necessary.<\/p>\n<p>More Information &#8211;<br \/>\nTool Source: Idea from Gus Nollmeyer<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Dice Decision Making tool gives students an opportunity to make decisions in a short amount of time.
