讲座内容摘要

Case teaching is a powerful method for engaging students in critical thinking, real-world problem solving, and active learning. This talk demystifies the process of writing effective teaching cases, offering a practical guide for educators and researchers interested in developing their own. It covers how to identify a strong case lead, one that presents a compelling dilemma, features a decision-maker under pressure and facing a meaningful choice, and reflects broader industry or policy challenges. The talk also outlines the essential components of a well-structured case, including context setting, decision points, and presentation, along with strategies for writing in a style that is both engaging and analytically rich. In addition, the talk will discuss how to design accompanying teaching notes and facilitate dynamic classroom discussions that encourage diverse perspectives, critical debate, and applied learning.
