A case study is an ineffective teaching tool if students don’t read it.
Why won’t they read it?
- It’s about a company they don’t know or, worse, don’t care about.
- It’s too long. Students want concise insights, not 10-page PDFs.
- It feels outdated or irrelevant. Students value relevance over prestige.
Long, outdated case studies about unfamiliar companies (hello, Enron) don’t resonate with students today.
If we want them to engage with case studies, we need to adapt our materials to match their expectations.
Step 1: Improve Engagement
To improve engagement, you need to design your case studies to be:
- Modern: Use companies that launched after your students were born. Think TikTok, Spotify, Duolingo—not Blockbuster or Kodak
- Relatable: Choose brands your students use or encounter regularly. If they already have a relationship with the company, they’ll be more invested in learning about it.
- Short: Less is more. Students are more likely to read and remember concise, focused case studies—especially if they can’t just ChatGPT a summary.
This is where AI-generated case studies come in.
They’re not just faster to create—they’re also easier to read and more relevant to your students.
