Case Study Center – Kathanweshan

(Established in 2023)

 

Case method teaching is an active form of instruction that focuses on a case and involves students learning by doing. Case teaching simulates real-world situations and asks students to actively discuss complex problems. Primarily, this pedagogy is being used in business schools to stimulate the students’ critical thinking abilities, problem-solving skills and decision-making skills. Management cases also expose students to a variety of organizations and managerial situations and help them learn to ask relevant good questions and get the right solutions before solving the problems

Objectives:

  • To create an environment wherein faculty members are motivated to use as case as a primary teaching pedagogy in the classroom.
  • To motivate faculty members to be authors of cases in their respective domains, which can be used in the classroom for teaching.
  • To motivate students to write cases with faculty members as per their interests.
  • To motivate faculty members to publish cases in world-class repositories like Harvard, Ivey, Case centre, Sage, ET cases etc.
