Case Method in the Teaching-Learning Process in Higher Education: A Pedagogical Innovation in Transition

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: This article analyzes the key elements of the case method to propose a clear delimitation of its development and application, thus optimizing its use in various educational contexts. The case method has been widely implemented in higher education as a pedagogical strategy that facilitates the acquisition of competencies through real or hypothetical situations. This approach allows students to apply theoretical knowledge in practical contexts, promoting critical thinking and decision-making in collaborative environments. Although traditionally used in areas such as law and medicine, its potential in other disciplines, such as physical-mathematical and chemical-biological sciences, has not yet been fully explored. The correct implementation of the case method involves a careful design of teaching materials, as well as ongoing teacher training to maximize its effectiveness in different educational contexts.
