A case study is a puzzle to be solved and here is a strategy for formulating your initial post:
Read the case study to identify the key issues and underlying issues. These issues are the principles and concepts of the course module, which apply to the situation described in the case study.
Study the facts and focus on relevant information; the case may have extraneous information not relevant to the current module.
Describe actions that would address or correct the situation and who should act upon what.
Draw from experience, course readings or real-life experience.
Discuss the concepts, principles, and theories from your textbook. Cite your textbooks and cite any other sources if appropriate.
Your initial post should address all components of the question with a 500 word limit.
Reply to at least two discussion posts and dr. comment with comments that further and advance the discussion topic.
