Student Forecasting: Decision-Making Through Tournament Play

Date TBA

Every decision is a forecast of the future, using today's insights to predict tomorrow's outcomes. This session will introduce you to the innovative concept of Student Forecasting Tournaments—an interactive, gamified approach to teaching students key decision-making skills like assessing information and predicting likelihoods. Participants will dive into core forecasting techniques and get hands-on experience in making their own predictions about real-world events. This dynamic session will provide practical tools and methodologies that educators can take back to their classrooms.
