Teaching format tip

Case Study

Assign students specific analytical roles before presenting the case. Use structured questioning protocols to guide examination of stakeholder perspectives, decision points, and systemic factors. Have students work in small groups to develop competing recommendations, then debate solutions using evidence from the case. Conclude with reflection on reasoning processes and assumptions that influenced their analysis.

Tool

Demonstrate effective usage while encouraging experimentation and adaptation. Students should develop technical competencies and understand appropriate applications for different contexts. Use tools to enhance learning capabilities while building confidence with professional resources and methodologies.
