Teaching case methodology under an innovative perspective

Abstract

This article´s objective is to understand the application of the Teaching Case methodology, in order to verify to what extent this methodology can be considered an innovative educational practice. Thereunto, it is adopted the Study Case to analyze the application of the Teaching Case in students of the Germinare School. The study demonstrates the contribution of the Study Case method for the teaching-learning process in four categories: i) practical learning; ii) theories subordinated to practice; iii) interesting challenge; iv) commitment. The results indicate that the Teaching Case articulates the four categories and therefore, corroborates with the Practice-Based Studies.
