Rationale for Using the Case Study Method
To bridge the gap between theory and practice
A good case study gives students practice in:
identifying the parameters of a problem
evaluating courses of action
recognizing and articulating positions

Case studies are contextual narratives
Consist of the following elements:
1. a specific, reality-based story2. a rich scenario that describes a relatively
complex issue3. a conflict to be solved

Case Study Method works on two cognitive levels
Fundamental Level
1.raises a thought-provoking issue2.portrays actors at critical junctures3.provides plenty of data about entities, locations, and
actions
4.lacks an obvious or clear-cut right answer5.encourages students to reflect and take a position6.encourages students’ active participation

CASE STUDIES: student applies
the facts withactive guidance
over time
EXAMPLES: instructor describes the facts

Implementation of Case Study MethodCase with
action questionsWhat actually
happenedReview case based on new information
Any number of course sessions
