The case method is a widely used education tool that puts students in front and centre of the learning process. In business studies, it brings a piece of the real world into the classroom to ...facilitate elevated thinking skills among students, develop a deeper understanding of business problems, and arrive at better solutions. This article takes a closer look at the case method's two main pillars: preparation and analysis. Also, it outlines how discussions and participation can encourage intellectual exchange and empower students to make critical decisions. Since the onus of learning is on the students, and the instructor is merely a facilitator, they must understand the intent of the method to make it work to their benefit. This article is designed for students to use cases effectively, but instructors, too, can use it to introduce the case method to their students.
This article discusses strategies for developing music teaching materials that do not only focus on artistic aspects, but also consider human literacy as a key element in the learning process. ...Learning the art of music is not only a place to develop artistic skills, but also as a means to improve students' reading, writing and critical thinking abilities. In the context of the OBE Curriculum, the Case Method approach is used to present contextual and relevant learning. Case studies in learning the art of music not only cover technical aspects, but also relate them to real situations that allow students to apply their knowledge in the context of everyday life. The research results show that the development of music art teaching materials that combine human literacy and the Case Method can increase learning effectiveness. Students not only master musical arts skills, but also develop a deeper understanding of the relationship between musical arts and everyday life. This research contributes to the development of the music arts curriculum in elementary schools by strengthening the integration of human literacy in music arts learning.

This essay sharpens and refreshes the multi-case theory-building approach, sometimes termed The “Eisenhardt Method.” The Method’s singular aim is theory building, especially with multiple cases and ...theoretical logic. Its defining features (e.g. research questions without obvious answers, careful case selection, well-identified constructs and relationships, theoretical arguments, boundary conditions) reflect this aim. I begin with the influence of the 1980s, including grounded theorizing and case logic. Relying on exemplars, I illustrate the Method’s defining features. I also address common misconceptions (e.g. types of data, number of cases, performance emphasis). These miss the Method’s essence and imply a rigid template that does not exist. Instead, the Method’s relatively few defining features enable a wide variety of research possibilities. I conclude with what I would write today like a richer palette of research choices, more emphasis on time, and flexible philosophy of science. Yet the core message of theory building would remain.

The Journal of Applied Behavioral Science is in the enviable position of being a go-to journal for many readers seeking useable insights for solving practical problems in managing modern ...organizations. A perennial source of such knowledge has been case studies, but case studies have been treated as questionable sources of widely applicable knowledge because they have been assumed to be idiosyncratic and to lack adequate “scientific” rigor. In this brief article, I argue for using a methodological approach to studying single cases that addresses both these thorny problems.
Several firms worldwide that attempted to penetrate the bottom of the pyramid (BOP) with digital service innovations have encountered disappointing returns. This article explores what capabilities ...firms should develop and how they should nourish them for value creation at the BOP. Using the multiple-case method, this study inductively derives persuasion, co-creation, adaptation, and self-sustainability as essential capabilities. Cumulative maneuvering of these capabilities resulted in a sand cone model. Both established incumbents and digital natives benefit from this model, which enables them to safeguard their digital offerings while penetrating or expanding within BOP markets.
This study investigated how combining the case method approach and technology tools can be effective in 21st-century instructional methods. The case method approach in teaching instruments focuses on ...assisting students develop critical thinking, problem-solving, and communication skills. Its goal is to provide practical learning experiences that allow students to apply these skills in real-world situations. Teachers can successfully incorporate the case method approach into their instrument teaching by selecting appropriate case studies, establishing clear learning objectives, designing engaging activities,and incorporating technology tools such as digital media, interactive simulations, and online platforms. The study findings indicate that integrating the case method approach in technology tools in instruction, course syllabus, and materials improved student engagement and access to information, encouraged student collaboration and communication, and improved critical thinking, problem-solving, and communication skills. As a result, incorporating the case method approach and technology tools into teaching instruments allows teachers to provide a hands-on learning experience that focuses on essential skills. This integration creates a dynamic and interactive learning environment, promoting skill development and optimizing students' overall learning experience.
Students still have problems achieving adequate writing skills in academic writing. Hence, the case method, scaffolding, and supporting technology are applied to help students improve their academic ...writing skills in the English for Specific Purpose (ESP) course. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the case method and scaffolding technique assisted by supporting technology to train students' academic writing in ESP courses. The research was experimental research with a post-test-only non-equivalent control group design. The samples were 50 students of the Environmental Science Study Program. The instruments were the performance test of writing an essay and a questionnaire to determine students' responses to the learning process. The result shows Sig. (2 tailed) 0,05, indicating there is a difference between the academic writing of the experimental group and the control group. The mean score and writing aspect assessment of the experimental group are also higher than the control group. Therefore, it can be concluded that the case method and scaffolding technique assisted by supporting technology is effective in training students' academic writing, and it also reveals the case method's role in improving students' skills.
