Faculty and researchers: We want to hear from you! We are launching a survey to learn more about your library collection needs for teaching, learning, and research. If you would like to participate, please complete the survey by May 17, 2024. Thank you for your participation!
A case study is a record of research examining in detail the development of a particular person, group, or situation over a period of time.
It is an in depth study of a particular situation. A case study is not intended to answer a question completely, but it can indicate a direction for further research.
Case studies are a form of qualitative descriptive research that is used to look at individuals, a small group of participants, or a group as a whole, drawing conclusions only about that participant or group and only in that specific context. Researchers do not focus on the discovery of a universal truth, nor do they typically look for cause-effect relationships; instead, emphasis is placed on exploration and description. Researchers collect data about participants using participant and direct observations, interviews, and examinations of records.
And for a refreshing change ...
