An important facet of college students’ science literacy and job market preparation is developing skills for finding and applying information to decision-making about complex real-world problems. We developed a multidisciplinary science course to support development of these skills using a decision-making framework based on normative models of structured decision-making. Students practiced decision-making skills in the context of several socioscientific issue modules. We documented a postcourse increase in students’ self-efficacy for finding, evaluating, and using technical information in decision-making. We also review prior findings that articulate potential beneficial student learning outcomes as a result of this teaching approach. This course may provide a model for introductory courses to better align with institutional goals for science literacy and critical-thinking.
