A hallmark of field epidemiology training is its focus on acquisition of practical epidemiologic knowledge and skills to address priority public health issues. The training must prepare the trainee to conduct the core functions of a field epidemiologist - investigate outbreaks, conduct public health surveillance…

This paper reports the use of a qualitative methodology for conducting longitudinal case study research on software development. We provide a detailed description and explanation of appropriate methods of qualitative data collection and analysis that can be utilized by other researchers in the software engineering…

Case study research has become an important research methodology for exploring phenomena in their natural contexts. Case studies have earned a distinct role in the empirical analysis of software engineering phenomena which are difficult to capture in isolation. Such phenomena often appear in the context of methods and…

Case studies are an essential part of evidence-based practice (EBP) because they provide a type of evidence for clinical practice that cannot be provided by other types of research. Case studies demonstrate how (not just which) change processes operate to achieve positive outcome, and how these processes can be…

The case-study teaching method has a long history (starting at least with Socrates), and wide current use in business schools, medical schools, law schools, and a variety of other disciplines. However, relatively little use is made of it in the physical sciences, specifically in physics or astronomy. The case-study…

Background The implementation of unfolding scenario-based case studies in the didactic classroom is associated with learner-centered education. The utilization of learner-centered pedagogies, such as case studies, removes the focus from the instructor and instead places it on the student. Learner-centered pedagogies…

This article examines five common misunderstandings about case-study research: (1) Theoretical knowledge is more valuable than practical knowledge; (2) One cannot generalize from a single case, therefore the single case study cannot contribute to scientific development; (3) The case study is most useful for generating…

This paper analyzes the working or default assumptions researchers in the formal, statistical, and case study traditions typically hold regarding the sources of unexplained variance, the meaning of outliers, parameter values, human motivation, functional forms, time, and external validity. We argue that these working…

Microbiology education in veterinary curricula requires students to integrate complex foundational knowledge with clinical application, yet traditional lecture-based approaches often emphasize memorization over higher-order reasoning. In this study, we evaluated the impact of integrating clinically oriented, case-based…

Oral pathology comprises of extensive teaching-learning of histopathology. Teaching histopathology is always challenging more when numerous histopathology slides are involved. There is lack of interest among the students and also face challenges to correlate with the clinical presentation. For effective learning, need…

The manufacturing process of batteries can be complex and time-consuming. We introduce a new version of the digital twin of our lithium ion battery pilot line, Simubat 4.0 Gen-2, based on a new combination of Virtual Reality and Mixed Reality. This digital twin is designed to deliver training on the lithium-ion battery…

Direct air capture and storage (DACS) is a carbon dioxide removal technology that is necessary to reach our climate targets. However, huge question marks remain regarding the cost. In contrast to previous studies, we use a costing methodology that is truly consistent with the technology readiness level of DACS to…
