Lesson Plans

Addressing the Psychological Effects of Illnesses:

Using the case study, "A Battle of Will & Well Being" (see CPALMS Resource ID # 219822), students will explore the psychological reactions patients may have to recurring illnesses, such as denial, anger, and paranoia, and analyze how healthcare professionals can respond effectively. Through reading a case study, discussing open-ended questions, and collaborating on a revised patient-care scenario, students will develop strategies for empathetic and professional communication. By the end of the lesson, students will reflect on how these skills apply to real-world healthcare settings.

The Art of Selling Style: Fashion Forward Designs:

Using the case study, “Fashion Forward Designs,” students will share their individual experiences with using websites, social media, email, and customer loyalty programs in marketing fashion brands, both from a marketer's and a consumer's perspective. In small groups, students will plan and prepare a role-play scenario, embodying one of the characters from the case study. After the role-play, each student will write a solution to the case study.

Out of Order: Stories from the History of the Supreme Court: Supreme Opinions:

Students will read portions of Out of Order: Stories from the History of the Supreme Court and use what they learned about the process of writing summary opinions to write a narrative skit that displays the dialogue from their understanding in the Judge’s chambers.
