Abstract

Case studies have been a subject of much study and research about their effectiveness in teaching and learning [1, 2, 3]. Although the use of case study teaching has become a proven and pervasive method of teaching about professional practice in such fields as business, law, and medicine, it is yet to be adopted in any significant way in the computing education. One of the reasons for the paucity in the use of the case-study approach is the lack of sufficient material for this purpose. For example, among the hundreds of case studies in science at the SUNY Buffalo web site [4] only three concern computer science or software engineering.
