Develop your own case-based teaching material and get new ideas on how you can use this instructional method in your classroom. Workshop for university teachers held in new facilities in campus Albano specially adapted for case method.

Welcome to a workshop on teaching and learning with Centre for the Advancement of University Teaching (CeUL).

This workshop is aimed for teachers and course directors at Stockholm University

About the workshop

Case-based teaching engages students in discussion of specific scenarios that resemble or typically are real-world examples. The method is applicable in a wide range of settings and disciplines, from business to bioethics. It is a learner-centered method with intense interaction between participants as they build their knowledge and work together as a group to examine case material and engage in problem-identification, negotiation and problem-solving.

During the workshop we will

• Discuss the case method
• Discuss literature on case method in different disciplines
• Learn experiences from a multi-disciplinary case in bioethics
• Identify opportunities for case teaching in your own teaching
• Design case material for your own settings
