Aligned to high school Common Core and NGSS standards.

Case Study Sequence

part 1

Content

For each case study, we scour the web to find the best sources; these include videos, animations, articles, simulations, podcasts and much more.

The first step is for students to read, watch and engage with the content. (Part 1 and 2 are typically assigned as homework.)

part 2

Assignment

For every case study there is an assignment to further engage students in thinking about the topic.

Assignments vary from short response questions, multiple choice and fill in the blank questions, research papers, presentations, preparation for the activity and more.

part 3

activity

Now, the fun part! Students will bring what they've learned to class. Many of these cases involve thought provoking, relevant, controversial topics. The activity simply facilitates the conversation.

Activities vary by class but include mock trials (law classes), Shark Tank (business classes), debates, labs, discussions, presentations and more.

If you do, tell us about it! We love to hear ideas from students and teachers. We will do everything we can to turn your idea into a case study!
