Sažetak
The case study method in teaching business has become an integral part of modern education. This paper synthesizes views of what a case method is, and what the outcomes might be of case studies as a method for effective education and business training. A case study presents a model of real life which serves to facilitate decision-making practice and to improve the managerial skills of students and practitioners of different business disciplines. Case studies can be used in many ways. Their use will be shaped by the teacher's own view of the subject and the role of cases in the teaching, by the instructor's style and the expectations, backgrounds and abilities of the students. Often the primary objective for using cases in teaching business is to develop ability in analysis and thinking. However, research results related to the effectiveness of the use of the case method show that cases are most effective as a means for developing communication, interpersonal skills and integration. Criticism that can be made may not be intrinsic to the case method itself, but to its poor implementation. Effective use requires clear specification of objectives, great attention to situational variables, and the use of review and self-assessment. The interactive case method in tourism education can be used as an effective pedagogic tool for developing practical solutions to management problems and for the pragmatic application of certain theoretical principles.
