This study examines whether case-based learning (CBL) in a core finance class improves student performance. It analyzes students' exam scores over two semesters at a regional U.S. public university. During the first semester, CBL is used to teach two sections of an intermediate corporate finance class. During the subsequent semester, the first…

This quasi-experimental study examines the effect of short instruction videos on students' business statistics learning. Two hundred and thirty-one Dutch students attended 6-week online seminars on Business Statistics. One hundred and nineteen students were in an experimental group, and 112 in a control group. Students in the experimental group…

There is increasing interest in the effectiveness of online case-based instruction. Although some prior research has emphasized the importance of online discussion and communication for these cases, recent work suggests that individual completion of these cases is also effective. In this research, participants individually read ethics cases and…

Responsible Management Education (RME) seeks to prepare students to address social and ecological crises via going beyond a traditional narrow understanding of shareholder wealth maximization. Past research has shown mixed results regarding the effectiveness of RME courses to change students' subsequent behavior. We examine whether taking an RME…
