The Influence of Discussion Groups in a Case-based Learning Environment.
Flynn, Anna E.; Klein, James D.
Educational Technology Research and Development, v49 n3 p71-86 2001
Examines the role of discussion groups in a case-based environment. College students completed two cases individually or in small discussion groups. Overall, participants in groups liked their method significantly better than those who worked alone, felt they learned more working in a group than they would have working alone, and expressed a preference for working in a group.
