Developing Case Studies to Teach Undergraduate Students About Communication Ethics and Health Disparities

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: This paper focuses on a developed assignment for students who are taking a Communication Ethics course. The assignment could act as a guideline for assisting instructors in developing a case study that discusses specific health disparities as it relates to communication ethics in a healthcare setting. Instructors can develop a case study that encourages students to investigate and apply communication ethics concepts to research and healthcare exchanges. The assignment is designed to introduce undergraduates to ethical behavior in healthcare communications and research. The case study also informs students about illnesses that might affect specific communities.
