Exploration |
Participants introduced themselves, describe their work, and share their personal and professional objectives for the retreat. Participation in activities designed to promote
team-work. In the pre-test begun the process of clarifying to the participants the following: (1) what constitute ethical theory, problems and issues, (2) what kind of method did
ethicists use to solve their problems and how this method related to that used in BSE. There were two panels to help facilitate the process of identifying issues that could be fleshed out into
case studies: three BSE practitioners from the Puerto Rican business community came to discuss ethical issues that arose in their work and a group of UPRM BSE students talked with the retreat
advisors and participants about what they saw as ethical issues that arose during the aftermath of Hurricane Georges. |
Integration |
Our retreat advisors discussed projects they had developed in conjunction with the NSF on introducing case study discussion into the classroom, case study selection, and case study
preparation. These workshops set up the sessions in which the retreat participants developed their own cases. The idea is to try these cases out on our own students, revise them, test them
again and compile them in a case study textbook published in Spanish and English. |
