  Case: Discussing the surrounding world...
Being a social science teacher requires me to communicate with my students the many events and current situations that are happening in society and/or surrounding world. With that being said, I found it important to discuss the recent cases of police shooting and brutality against young African American males in urban areas in the U.S. The topic prompted many questions as well as a great class discussion. However, it also brought many of my students to tears. Should I have discussed this topic or was it appropriate to discuss despite the emotional response?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I think it's great to discuss real life topics such as this. It's also great that you got your class so involved. I would just follow the discussion out with a happy more pleasant one in hopes of bringing up spirits.
