Responsibility Unit: To What Extent Are
We Responsible for Others?

To better help you understand the research
paper’s topic, we will examine the role of
individual and societal responsibility towards
other individuals, specifically those who seem
to be in a great state of harm or distress.
As you watch each video, you must address the
following questions in Cornell-Style Notes:
1) what does the researcher or documentary CLAIM?
(what are they saying or alleging in the video)
2) What evidence do they use to support their claim? (it
may be a news story or case study) provide as much
information about the event as possible.
3) Conclusion: To what extent were the individuals or
society responsible for others? Did anyone act? What
made people act? What made them stay silent?
