McWilliam, P. J.; Snyder, Patricia – Journal of Early Intervention, 1999
A study investigated the effectiveness of the Case Method of Instruction (CMI) on 67 graduate students taking an interdisciplinary course on families. After instruction, students not only possessed important knowledge related to working with families, but could also apply the problem-solving process used in CMI to a novel case. (Author/CR)

Peplow, Philip – Medical Teacher, 1998
An active, case-based project (CBP) learning program in anatomy was evaluated to measure differences between male and female students in perception of the initial discussion sessions as developing deep learning skills, and also in performance on CBP and essay components of the written examination. Females responded more positively to discussion…

Benham, Maenette K. – Teaching and Teacher Education, 1996
This paper contends that a preservice course in school change must tap into practitioners' lived experiences, recommending a case-based learning experience where practitioners reflect critically on their own practice and develop a rationale for change. The paper examines key aspects of the change process, noting how the process should look. (SM)

Admiraal, Wilfried; Wubbels, Theo; Pilot, Albert – Research in Higher Education, 1999
Compared use of problems and the conventional case method as methods of instruction at the Utrecht University Law School (Netherlands). The problem method required students to find, frame, and analyze issues and provided training seminars in legal problem-solving skills. Students using problems spent more time on learning activities and performed…

Memory, David M.; Yoder, Carol Y.; Bolinger, Kevin B.; Warren, Wilson J. – Social Studies, 2004
At least since John Dewey published his classic works (Dewey [1916] 1938; 1933; [1938] 1963), teachers have been urged to engage students by using thinking and inquiry tasks that reflect real-world concerns and interests. Subsequent to the appearance of Dewey's discussions of that pedagogical stance, the National Council for the Social Studies…

Vos, Henk; de Graaff, E. – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2004
The reasons to introduce formats of active learning in engineering (ALE) such as project work, problem-based learning, use of cases, etc. are mostly based on practical experience, and sometimes from applied research on teaching and learning. Such research shows that students learn more and different abilities than in traditional formats of…

McLaren, Susan V. – Journal of Technology Studies, 2003
Design and technology (D&T) education involves learners coping creatively with complexity. It must take account of a wide range of often apparently conflicting demands and constraints: aesthetic, economic, political, ethical, social, and environmental as well as ergonomic, technical, and scientific. Case study tasks describe a relatively…
