A case study is a type of assignment in which a student looks at a person, event, set of circumstances, or activity, and comes to a particular conclusion.
EXAMPLE 1: An accounting case study, requiring the student to compare a company’s financial statements over successive periods.
There are two main types of case study: analytical, and problem solving. An analytical case study asks the student to look at what happened and why. It does not necessarily require a particular solution to be suggested. This is common in fields of study such as healthcare, health sciences, anthropology, history and more. On the other hand, problem solving case studies ask the student to use all the information on the (real or hypothetical case) to come up with an answer or solution. This solution may take the form of a course of action, plan, or policy. Problem solving case studies are common in fields of study such as engineering, business, social services and human resources.
EXAMPLE 2: An education case study that asks for answers to questions about a hypothetical student with a particular set of learning and personal circumstances.
