These cases had the

advantage of allowing

specific situations or

specific pieces of theory

or tools of analysis to be

addressed.

The vignette case tended

to be used at the earliest

Diagram 1 stage of the module and
was often used to

examine a specific piece of theory or specific diagnostic tool.

The caselette put more meat on the bones and allowed a
more focussed depth of analysis and tended to be used in

the run up to the middle and latter part of the module. The

traditional case study tended to be used for final
assessment purposes.

These short case studies, as Diagram 1 shows, are a

collection of general case studies. However, other

collections of themed case studies have been undertaken
such as fraud cases, banking cases, and marketing cases.
