The idea
A case study examines one bounded case, in a set place and time, in its natural context, drawing on multiple sources of data.
In practice
One school's first year of a new schedule, traced through interviews, records and observation.
Where people slip
A case study cannot be generalized, so good ones report their context in detail, letting readers judge where the findings might apply.
