Case Studies for Faculty Development

In Chapter 4, Weimer makes a reference to a publication by Silverman and Pace (1992) that provides case studies on controversial topics of interest to students.  Examining the references in the back of the book points out a typo from Chapter 4, in that the reference is actually Silverman and Welty, and is titled Case Studies for Faculty Development.  I tracked down a document, but I'm wondering if it's only a portion of the whole publication, as there's only one case study provided.

A search for academic case studies on the web results in a great deal of content, such as this list provided by USA Today.

Are there specific case studies that others can recommend that would be appropriate to instigate classroom discussion, regardless of the subject area of the class?
