Seminar Content | After a short introduction to qualitative research (methods), the seminar will build on Robert K. Yin’s (2017) seminal textbook to introduce and review key concepts, techniques, and strategies along the different stages of case study research, namely: (1) How to know whether and when to use the case study as a research method; (2) Designing case studies; (3) Preparing to collect case study evidence; (4) Collecting case study evidence; (5) Analyzing case study evidence; (6) Reporting case studies. For each stage, there will be a discussion of illustrative examples taken from a case study recently published in a top-tier journal and/or hands-on exercises. Toward the end of the seminar, participants will be asked to develop and present an initial design for a future case study of their choosing. The seminar will conclude with a discussion of common misunderstandings about case study research and an open Q&A session. There will be two mandatory reading assignments. Participants are expected to read the assigned articles prior to attending the seminar. |
