Learn how to mine your industry contacts for engaging cases you can use as teaching tools to get students to apply their learning to real-world problems. This workshop will walk you through the process of writing your first case, from selecting an appropriate contact to conducting the interview(s) and shaping the narrative of the case to fit particular learning objectives. We will also prepare the case for publication with a teaching note.

In order to complete the workshop, participants must have a contact they want to interview during the week of the workshop.

Participants are required to have previous experience teaching or learning with cases, either through classroom experience or workshops on teaching cases.  For more information, please contact the Centre for Teaching and Learning at ext. 5040.
