Business school - History of business cases

1 Their first solution to this problem was to interview leading practitioners

of business and to write detailed accounts of what these managers

were doing, based partly on the case method already in use at Harvard

Law School

Business school - Other approaches

1 In contrast to the case method some schools use a skills-based approach in teaching

business. This approach emphasizes quantitative methods, in particular operations research, management information systems,

statistics, organizational behavior, modeling and simulation, and decision science. The leading

institution in this method is the Tepper School of Business at Carnegie Mellon University. The goal

is to provide students a set of tools that will prepare them to tackle and solve problems.

Professional development - Approaches

1 Case Study Method - The case method is a teaching approach that consists in presenting the students

with a case, putting them in the role of a decision maker facing a problem

(Hammond 1976) - see also Case method.

Circle-ellipse problem - Make all instances constant

1 In this case methods such as stretchX must be changed to yield a new instance, rather than modifying the instance they act on. This means

that it is no longer a problem to define Circle.stretchX, and the

inheritance reflects the mathematical relationship between circles and

ellipses.

Constraint logic programming - The constraint store

1 The simplest case method is for the interpreter to save the complete

state of the store every time it makes a choice (it chooses a clause to

rewrite a goal)

Harvard Business School

1 'Harvard Business School' ('HBS') is the graduate school|graduate business school of Harvard University in Boston, Massachusetts, United States. The school offers a large full-time MBA program, doctoral programs, and

Columbia Law School - The Dwight Method

1 Professor Dwight believed a course of legal study should focus on the application of basic legal principles, as learned through the study of legal treatises, coupled with frequent moot courts which would permit students to demonstrate their proficiency in applying those principles to new legal

problems.http://library.law.columbia.edu/EarlyHistoryColumbiaLaw/articles/15AmLaw419-422.pdf In this way, Dwight's

method of teaching diverged significantly from the case method which had then been popularized by Dean Langdell

of the Harvard Law School which focused on the study of individual cases and the use of inductive reasoning to distill governing legal principles from those case with little time

spent on the practical application of those principles

Columbia Law School - The Dwight Method

1 Dwight believed that his method was superior to the case method because

it helped to create trained legal practitioners ready to enter the

profession rather than academics more suited to teaching

Columbia Law School - The Dwight Method

1 By the late nineteenth century, Dwight's method give way to the case method which by the turn of the twentieth century had become

the standard curriculum at all of the other premier American law schools at Harvard, Yale and the University of Pennsylvania. In 1891, in

response to Columbia's adoption of the case method, Dwight and a number of Columbia professors left the Law School to found New

York Law School in Manhattan's Financial District, Manhattan|Financial District.
