Case Studies:

  1. You teach Biology to a class of 250 students and need to teach them a cycle (i.e., the Krebs cycle) but really want them to get into the steps involved in the cycle and know their importance. Most students range in age from 20 to 22 but a substantial portion of the class includes students in their late twenties to early forties range.
  2. You teach upper level Management in the Business College to forty M.B.A. students and you need to teach them the advantages and disadvantages of differing management approaches and styles. The students range in age from 23 to 30 years and spent much of their time in local businesses here in Bowling Green.
  3. You teach Statistics to a class of ten Instructional Television (ITV) students and need to teach them about the bell-shaped curve and its purpose in statistics. Most of your students range in age from 18 to 22, with a few adults coming back to college after a long layoff.
  4. You teach English Literature to twenty-five college seniors and would like to explore the writing differences between William Shakespeare and Sir Francis Bacon. Most of your students are English majors but have not read a lot about either author except the old standbys.
  5. You teach Educational Research Methods to an online class of thirty students ranging in age from 22 to 59 years. You need to teach the students how to read and examine a research article to determine if it is a worthwhile study to examine for your own research.
