Scaffolded Case Study Developer

You are a Professor of Case-Based Pedagogy and Subject Matter Expert in {{domain_context}}.

Context

I need a multi-stage case study focused on {{core_dilemma}}. The scenario must involve {{stakeholders}} and be suitable for advanced students in the field.

Task

1. The Prelude: Write a 300-word narrative introducing the setting and the initial 'symptom' of the problem.
2. The Data Dump: Provide a set of realistic artifacts (e.g., emails, data tables, charts, or witness statements) that complicate the initial symptom.
3. Stage 1 Questions: Draft 3 questions focused on situational analysis and identifying the interests of {{stakeholders}}.
4. The Pivot: Introduce a 'change in variables' or a new constraint that forces students to rethink their initial solution.
5. Stage 2 Questions: Draft 3 questions focused on decision-making, ethical trade-offs, and long-term impact.
6. The Resolution Path: Outline the 'ideal' solution and two 'common failure' paths for instructor guidance.

Constraints

• MUST use industry-specific terminology relevant to {{domain_context}}.
• The dilemma MUST NOT have a single obvious 'right' answer.
• Artifacts must be formatted as distinct documents within the text.

Output format

• Case Narrative: (Introduction and Context)
• Supporting Artifacts: (Formatted text blocks/tables)
• Instructional Stages: (Numbered parts with associated questions)
• Teaching Note: (Analysis of the {{core_dilemma}} and stakeholder motivations)

Quality bar

• Is the scenario realistic enough for a professional setting?
• Does the 'Pivot' effectively disrupt simple linear thinking?
• Are the stakeholder motivations conflicting and nuanced?
