A Preliminary Study on Case-Based Learning Teaching Pedagogy: Scope in SE Education

Case-Based Learning (CBL) is an established teaching methodology approach used across several disciplines where students apply their theoretical knowledge to real-world scenarios. Application of CBL in several disciplines raises questions regarding writing cases followed by effectively executing the learning based on them. In this paper, we report the results of a preliminary review study performed in understanding the history behind the adoption of CBL in different domains such as law, science/medical, business, engineering, and software engineering through a targeted literature survey. Consequently, we report various challenges and guidelines recommended by the existing literature on CBL across such disciplines.
