Cases

Over 37,000 cases on all aspects of national and international business and management, authored worldwide, are available in the ecch case collection. Most cases are in English, with about 1250 cases also available in another language. A typical case may average between ten and thirty sides with some supporting graphics or data.

Traditionally, cases are printed on paper and most students and faculty still prefer to use paper cases in the classroom. However, most of the cases in the ecch collection are now available electronically for search, ordering and delivery. On-line inspection copies can also be viewed in case search.


Teaching notes

More than 15,000 teaching notes are available in the ecch collection to accompany cases. Experienced case teachers testify to the value of a well-constructed teaching note. Teaching notes help the case teacher identify and focus on the key learning outcomes designed in the case and to plan class discussion and dynamics. 80% of the most popular cases have teaching notes.

Guidance on writing teaching notes is also available.


Supplementary materials

The ecch catalogue contains items that may be used in conjunction with a case. These include technical notes, industry background notes or software files such as PowerPoint presentations or spread sheets, which support the case.


Videos

More than 800 videos are available. These include interviews with key personalities featured in cases or other kinds of relevant material.


Multimedia

The collection includes a large number of CD-ROMs, DVDs and interactive items. Some of these are cases in their own right; others offer supplementary information to cases or teaching notes. Please note that these items are only compatible with Windows XP or earlier, unless stated otherwise.
