Material Detail

Case studies have long been heralded as an impactful and critical pedagogical approach in college classrooms. Depending on how case studies are integrated into an educational space, students can increase research skills by conducting research to develop additional context when conceptualizing a case or locate additional sources to better understand themes; develop writing skills by drafting, peer reviewing, workshopping, and revising cases; expand critical thinking skills by defining or articulating problems or complexities in contexts; engage intercultural competency skills by listening to multiple perspectives, participating in dialogue, and considering cultural dynamics; and explore problem solving skills by conceptualizing action plans and analyzing consequences.
