INTRODUCTION: PREPARING A TEACHING NOTE
A teaching note is a document designed to give other
potential instructors valuable insights into the case and the
learning which can be derived from its use. The teaching
note allows in particular, new teachers to see what the case
author intended when using the case study – its strengths
and weaknesses. Moreover, it provides insights from the
experienced user on the traps and pitfalls to avoid, places
where students were apt to travel, and the quagmires that
may lie ahead. In essence the teaching note provides a
security blanket for both the new lecturer and the seasoned
one.
