This Open Educational Resource, “Cases on Social Issues: For Class Discussion” includes
valuable cases on issues of diversity, equity, and inclusion for student use. The critical
events portrayed in the cases are realistic and emotional, and feature the experiences of
under-represented and marginalized people. These thoughtful, contemporary cases pose
ethical dilemmas about social issues that encourage post-secondary students and
instructors to have stimulating, inclusive, and compassionate discussions. Inspired by
input from post-secondary students and authored by people usually under-represented in
education material, this resource is designed for upper-level undergraduate or graduate
students in the humanities, social sciences, business, healthcare, science, agriculture,
environmental studies, law and more. Each case is supplemented with modifiable discussion
prompts, notes for teaching strategy, and a short reading list. This resource is a work in
progress.
