One of the themes that emerged during small group discussions at this session was the need for opportunities for members to share teaching strategies around social responsibility. As educators, we bring diverse perspectives to the teaching of social responsibility although we have common goals—to facilitate students' critical thinking and decision-making skills. In some cases, an overarching theme of a course may be social responsibility; in other cases, social responsibility may be embedded in course activities, discussions, or papers. Speakers presented a variety of teaching strategies. In each of the strategies, students gained an understanding of the complex nature of social responsibility and the need to examine multiple views to any topic. Detailed information about the specific teaching strategy can be obtained by contacting the individual. Leslie Burns presented an overview of a position paper assignment that is part of an upper division global production and trade course. The purpose of the position paper was for the students to address an issue, a single point in question, or matter in dispute related to global production and trade in the textiles and apparel industry. The position paper states a claim and presents reasons why this claim is justified. Components of the position paper include claim, definitions, argument, counterclaim, and conclusion.
