For the sixth year WACRA offers workshops specifically designed to assist you in learning how to write cases and/or improve your cases. Even if you do not submit a case you are welcome to participate and gain valuable insight into the case research-writing-publishing process.
New Case Writers' Workshop: A panel of experienced case researchers will discuss how to research, write and improve cases. Among the topics to be covered will be objectives, various types of case research, information sources, the writing process, and the use and development of effective teaching notes. Integral to this process will be the discussion by panel members of several presented cases and teaching notes. These cases, still in the development stage, will demonstrate the case editing and improvement process. Experienced case writers are also welcome.
The Sixth Annual Casewriters' Colloquium is scheduled as a pre-conference activity on Sunday, June 29, 1997 (preregister - see details). Both novice and experienced case writers can benefit from the colloquium. Case presenters, panelists from the workshop, and all other participants are organized into roundtables for (free-form) discussion of various cases presented at each table. Pre-register and obtain more details, a packet of information (useful to case writers) and a set of cases (indicate your area of interest(s).
