This workshop is aimed at sharpening our skills in the case method of teaching. There are three clear requirements of effective teaching using the case method:
- Identifying the most effective cases for the topics covered in the course.
- Preparing to lead the class discussion.
- Leading the class discussion in a manner such that students discover the theory rather than be informed about it.
Given the contextual nature of management education, the best cases are the ones developed by the instructor and hence the course instructors become effective course coordinators when they develop live case material.
This workshop using the case method of teaching shall help the participants in developing skills in the above areas and shall close with a project on case development.
