This study focuses on the perspectives of pre-service teachers exposed to cases in an educational psychology course. It considers how students view cases and how their thoughts, beliefs, and attitudes regarding case-based activities change throughout the semester. Both qualitative and quantitative data (participating observations, interviews, surveys, California Critical Thinking Disposition Inventory) are presented regarding students' perspectives, as well as interview data on the perspectives of several EPY instructors who teach with cases. Students' perspectives are compared with the theoretical intent of cases and the expected learning outcome of teachers using cases to show correlating or opposing views. The following are appended: (1) Course Schedule; (2) Case Study Analysis Guidelines; (3) Interview Questions for Students; and (4) Interview Questions for Teachers. (Contains 4 figures.)
