Abstract

As society continues to progress, it is becoming increasingly more important to mathematically deal with issues, take risks and uncertainty into account, clarify the grounds for participating in judgements or decision making, and make critical deliberations. This competence is defined as "decision making”. We present the design of a task about saving more lives with automatic external defibrillators (AEDs) in order to foster this competency in mathematics lessons. In methodological terms, we use Lesson Study to
carefully anticipate the process of students’ finding and solving problems. We review the design from different viewpoints, such as “What times and how should all the students in the class study?” or “When and what kind of materials should be presented?”
