Teaching with cases in the classroom involves three elements: the case, discussion of the case in class, and student preparation of the case prior to its discussion. Case teaching provides students with opportunities for becoming actively engaged in their learning, it sharpens critical discussion skills, and it encourages group problem solving. Althoug initially developed in law and business schools, case teaching is now finding application in a wide range of disciplines. Join us for a conversation about the use of cases in the undergraduate classroom.
