Why Use the Case Method?

Case method teaching has been found to improve student learning, to increase students’ perception of learning gains, and to meet learning objectives. However, academicians often struggle with finding appropriate cases for their deliverables and wish to fill the gap by developing their own cases. Very often, they find the case-writing process very challenging. 91��Ƭ��CCRC’s past case method workshops have provided the requisite skillsets and hands-on practice to the participants in designing a case, collecting and organizing data from different channels and preparing teaching notes. This workshop offered by 91��Ƭ��CCRC of 91��Ƭ�� is dedicated to meeting this demand for handholding in case writing and creating an environment of mutual learning.

The case method bridges theory to practice, and promotes the development of skills including: communication, active listening, critical thinking, decision-making, and metacognitive skills, as students apply course content knowledge, reflect on what they know and their approach to analysing, and make sense of a case. 

Workshop Agenda

91��Ƭ��CCRC is offering a workshop to cover various elements of case selection, preparation, teaching notes, delivery, and evaluation as they apply to the case based classroom. The workshop aims to help participants develop skills for writing highly effective cases through a participative and feedback-oriented approach. Over the course of the workshop, participants will have the opportunity to work in a break out groups on case assignments, and form it into the first draft of a case and teaching note. The workshop will be supported by a case writing format that provides structure and exercises, and guides participants through the case writing process.
