Conclusion
Putting it All Together
Why Use Case Method?
"We cannot teach people anything; we can
only help them discover it within
themselves."
~ Galileo Galilei (1564-1642)
great Italian astronomer, mathematician, &
physicist
Why Use Case Method?





Some concepts are best shown through
example
Context matters -- what works in one
situation might not work in another
You get to be the manager in 20+
companies this semester
Feel the nuance and complexity of the
situation, but boil down to key issue(s)
Over time, will help with pattern recognition
Case Preparation

Assignment questions on syllabus/website





Opening study question is often, “what should
the protagonist do?”
Put yourself in the shoes of the protagonist
Prepare until you have an action plan
….and be willing to bet your career on it
More learning comes from being wrong, than
being right

Note: See “Guide to Cracking Cases”
Class Preparation Expectations

Minimum of 2 hrs. preparation for each class




Typically assigned a Case & Note/Reading for
each session
Focus on Cases
Use whatever time left over to read Notes
Notes will provide structures/frameworks to
guide our class discussion
Case Preparation Tactics/Steps
Skim the reading/note quickly for new concepts
1.
Skim the case quickly
2.
Re-read the case carefully
3.
Decide what the issues are (case questions)
4.

5.
Complete analysis
6.

7.

Re-read the reading/note if have time
End of Class Sessions




Unlike much of your engineering curriculum,
there will not always be a “right” answer
Business is messy, don’t expect a tidy
solution
Let the lessons settle in over time
Will share outcomes where possible; guest
speakers can offer insights
Grading




40% -- Class Participation and Assignments
20% -- Midterm Group Project & Presentation
20% -- Final Group Project & Presentation
20% -- Final Exam
How will participation be evaluated?






40% of grade based on class attendance &
participation
Your participation in critical to the process –
requires good preparation
QUALITY + Quantity
Provide your viewpoint with supporting facts or
analysis to back it up
Very few “right” answers
LISTEN to your fellow classmates -- take the
discussion forward, not backward
Group Assignments & Projects





Groups of 5
Pick your own groups
Pick a concept for a new venture that you

think about in terms of the service it might
give others... I find out what the world needs,
then I proceed to invent."
