Case Study

A case study is an in-depth study of one person,

group, or event. In a case study, nearly every
aspect of the subject’s life and history is analyzed
to seek patterns and causes of behavior. Case
studies can be used in various fields, including
psychology, medicine, education, anthropology,
political science, and social work.
 Purpose of The Case Study

 The purpose of a case study is to learn as much as

possible about an individual or group so that the
information can be generalized to many others.
Unfortunately, case studies tend to be highly
subjective, and it is sometimes difficult to
generalize results to a larger population.
Importance of Case Study

 Itis valuable data sources for researchers in view

of the complexity and diversity of educational
settings and purposes.
 Capture a range of perspectives, as opposed to
the single view of an individual you get with a
survey response or interview.
Types of Case Study

Illustrative Case Study

Exploratory Case Study
Cumulative Case Study
Critical Instance Case Study
Intrinsic Case Study
 Descriptive Case Study
Illustrative Case Study
This type of case study that research design appears
in scenarios with an existing hypothesis or opinion.

Exploratory Case Study

In simple terms, such a study focuses on an initial
project conducted before going ahead with an
otherwise large-scale investigation.
Cumulative Case Study
It can be described as one of the main types of
qualitative research studies. This is because it is a great
tool to collect information from several sources
simultaneously.

Critical Instance Case Study

A critical case study examines the cause and effect of a

particular event or scenario on the environment around
it.
Intrinsic Case Study
This type of investigation focus is on a Single and
unique Individual. This study can also include the
people close to the Researcher.

Descriptive Case Study

You need to create a descriptive study format for most

hypothesis. It starts with explicitly describing what you
are attempting to study.
