Millennium Fellowship Project: Cognitive Decision Sandbox (CDS)
Cognitive Decision Sandbox (CDS) is an interactive, scenario-based program that strengthens critical thinking, bias recognition, and ethical decision-making through exercises and guided reflection sessions.
During the Fellowship, CDS held both in-person and virtual sessions that introduced participants to cognitive biases, reflective thinking, and real-world decision scenarios. I met my core goal of running multiple sessions and engaging students meaningfully.
