12
Why use case studies
• Experiential Learningo Students learn for themselves by struggling with
the issues that the leaders in the stories faceo Students deeply examine a scenario, use related
assigned readings, and write a paper• The discussions help students gain knowledge
about a subject• Use conceptual or analytical techniques• Good habit of asking “why” through analysis• Think about leaders’ perspectives

What case is NOT
• Not a lecture• Not just the teacher sharing information• Not memorization• Not one correct answer• Teaching is not the sole center of attention,
but more of a facilitator

Determining the purpose and your topic/thesis/theory
• Is there a topic you are discussing in class like leadership, governance, cost/benefit analysis you want to test in the real world?
• Is there a policy issue you want to illustrate?
• Are you highlighting the decision making process?
6/15-16/2012Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012
![Page 18: Isu case study presentation](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062704/5557c224d8b42a696c8b5476/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Developing a partner(s) funder and organization willing to be the subject of a case
• Organizations agree to cooperate because o Insight into their own organization o Want to participate in educating leaderso Outside excited researchers and students
can stimulate new ideas into their own organizations

19
Determining a timeline of research, writing, editing and the costs of developing a case
• Be realistic• Prepare to go back several times to the
organization to clarify assumptions• Engage an editor• Get a good set of outside people to
comment on the case; including the organizations highlighted
• Edit again• Get feedback from students as you teach
the case for the first time

Initial questions • What are you trying to accomplish in terms of
fitting into the course?• Who is the audience?• What ancillary materials will you develop?• What decisions need to be made by the
protagonist?• How much data is useful to move the story
along?• How long will the case be?• What is the controversy; the context in which
a decision needs to be made?

Salamon on Nonprofits

treats its least advantaged citizens. But it can also be seen in the way it treats its most valued
institutions.”

Authority
Some of the biggest hurdles that cities and states face are just defining what reentry is, and in what agency it belongs, and who has authority

Implementation of a strategy
• Less a policy discussion about what legislatively should be done
• More about best practices and implementation efforts
• Implementation is the hardest thing for public leaders to do – particularly across governments

Jobs• Most U.S. reentry efforts pay more
rhetorical respect to jobs, but emphasizing placement and retention still seems to lag behind knocking out all other barriers first
• The corollary of this is performance measurement that hold vendors accountable for the right things in a reasonable way
• … and concurrently holds governments to track what is spent on reentry

Lessons learned throughout planning and implementation of re-entry related
policies• Clarify Expectations
• Set up communication systems among all agencies and players
• Provide info mgt system
• Share information among agencies
• Track results
• Allow incentives and punishments to work together (housing, child support, etc.)

Newark Prisoner Reentry – Follow up
6/15-16/2012Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012
By December 31, 2010, the Newark Prisoner Reentry Initiative, had placed 781 people in jobs. Under the NPRI, five nonprofit agencies that provided case management, mentoring and job placement services, were required to meet certain performance outcomes. During the two years of their contracts, the NPRI reported, these five agencies produced the following results: ❖ An enrollment of 1360 participants.The enrollment benchmark was 1340. The NPRI achieved 101% of this target. ❖ A recidivism rate of 7% percent.This benchmark was 22%. The NPRI exceeded this target. ❖ A total placement of 781 people in permanent jobs with an averagehourly wage of $9.30 per hour.This benchmark was 804 job placements (or 60% of the participant target) with an average hourly wage of $9.00 per hour. The NPRI agencies achieved nearly 97% of this job-placement benchmark and exceeded the hourly-wage requirement. ❖ A 71% job retention rate.This component of the contract focused on job retention for six months, and the benchmark was 70%. Thus the NPRI achieved this target.

Case Memo Purpose
• Practicing direct precise communication
• Maximum use of limited space
• Quickly drawing the readers attention to the most essential ideas
• Expresses those ideas clearly

72
Case Memo Purpose
• Students should read it to get a sense of the outline; who the main actors are; what is the important decision to be made
• They should re-read it looking for what is said, implied, and is missing
• Decide on a course of action and find evidence in the case and class readings to support it
• Develop a plan to implement the course of action

73
Case Memo Considerations• Who are the decision makers & other key characters?
• What is his or her objective?
• What are the key issues and how to they affect the decision?
• What is the environment in which the decision needs to be made?
• What are the possible courses of action a leader can make and what are the consequences of those actions?
• What is plausible?
• How will others react?

Effective Case Memo Outline
• What does your audience know? – usually there is a student assignment that asks the student to act like a staff person to the key decision maker
• Define the subject upfront about exactly what you are writing about
• Explain why you are writing the memo – what is the action you are seeking to encourage

75
Effective Case Memo Outline• Header – Subject of the memo, date, to and from
• State the purpose in the opening sentences; what are the main points of your memo; and why you are writing it?
• Quick introduction and background for context
• Short clear sentences; no passive voice
• Clean Inviting appearance

77
Managing a Conversation• Case method is about the discussion
• The teacher puts the group on the right path, motivates the students
• The discussion flows from the facts of the case, the details - to some insights on what happened – to some conclusions about what should be done moving forward
• Teachers are to moderate students discussion so that as a whole group you examine the problem
• Summarize the progress of the conversation as you move forward

78
Managing a Conversation
• Determine what are the major issues which the case is intended to illustrate
• How does it relate in context to the other work you are doing this semester with your class
• How will you record the discussion
• Keep a list of the traps in the case and ensure they get raised

Developing a Teaching Note
• A plan for using the case• Case summary• Statement of Learning Objectives• Assignment Questions• Decision discussion• Maybe a blackboard plan outlining role plays,

Managing a Conversation

82
Managing a Conversation• The teacher may give an introductory
lecture on a theme
• The teacher will have facilitated and recorded the discussion’s direction - a trail of blackboard evidence
• The teacher will illuminate critical case conflicts if necessary or play “devil’s advocate”
• The class case discussion will end up being upbeat, participatory, and satisfying

Managing a Conversation

Proving What You Are Good At• How will your organization know if you are
making progress; what goals are you tracking? • How will you measure your success? Define
your terms.
