Problems with case study methods
The case study, like all social research, should be clearly designed to facilitate the data
collection stage. From the start, the researcher should pay attention to the following:
•
Evaluation questions
The researcher should have a clear sense of what to examine in the research process,
with the variables of interest clearly defined.
• Propositions
The researcher must have clear guide of the considerable number of things that should be
looked at within the scope of the examination. Expectations should address aspects of the
examination that are applicable to the current inquiry. Propositions
should guide the
researcher on what to search for that is critical, and where that data can be found.
•
Unit of analysis
This alludes to the dimension at which the contextual analysis is focused. The unit of
examination has to be controlled by the exploration question and accessibility of time and
different assets. The researcher may go past the unit of analysis to build up a progressively
detailed presentation of the case study.
