Why do templates break my table of contents???

I had poked around last night and realized you meant the Pedagogical Templates, and noticed the Template:Example in particular. You've encountered a long standing bug in how those templates were built. I made a change to the Example template to prevent it from appearing in the table of contents by default, and it seemed to fix the problem for the pages I checked. I'll have to go through and change the other 25+ Pedagogical Templates. I've just done Template:Case study so the page you cited should look better.

You can still force a Pedagogical Template to appear in the table of contents by using the TOCdepth=n parameter to each template (where n is the desired level in the ToC).

Thanks for the report.
