Guidelines for Case Study Submission

Teaching Case Study should:

  • Describe the actions of a well-developed central character that is facing a management decision.
  • Present a complex and compelling decision-making dilemma for students to analyse.
  • Should be logically structured, with a discussion of important business contexts and issues.
  • Should be written in the past tense, use an engaging case narrative style, and should not contain any language errors.

The Teaching Note (Both for Teaching case and Quick case) should:

  • Include an appropriate synopsis describing the context of the case, the dilemma being faced, and the discipline the case is relevant for.
  • Detail a set of teaching objectives for the stated target audience.
  • Provide a section on research methods detailing the types of data used to develop the case.
  • Include a 90-minute multi-media teaching plan, including suggested classroom facilitation questions and activities.
  • Include a set of assignment questions that align with the teaching objectives, and relate to the dilemma being faced in the case.
  • Use recent literature, theory, or research findings to analyse the case study and provide model answers to the assignment questions.
  • Include a specific set of instructions as to how this case can be used in an online environment and the ways in which an educator might want to consider adapting the teaching plan to use it in this way.
