Research-Based

As a result of its roots at the University of Virginia, a number of studies related to CaseNEX and case-method learning have been conducted during the past ten years. Researchers have demonstrated that CaseNEX delivers instruction as it claims and that the approach accomplishes what it purports to accomplish; that is, people who participate in CaseNEX are better able than non-participants to:

1. Recognize educational issues, problems, and opportunities;
2. Take into account others’ values when designing educational interventions;
3. Call up relevant professional knowledge when it is needed;
4. Forecast actions aimed at addressing particular problems; and
5. Assess the results of their actions.

In addition, studies have demonstrated that teachers who participate in CaseNEX are better at identifying problems, designing educational interventions to address them, and evaluating the effects of their teaching. A study of online and face-to-face offerings of CaseNEX courses also suggests that live and virtual treatments were equally as effective for promoting the moral development of teachers who entered the treatment with relatively low moral reasoning skills.
