Course content
The objective of this workshop is to equip you with tools that help in logically structuringpresentations and case reports. Case study analysis requires organizing existing and newinformation into relevant frameworks in order to perform a sound analysis. Although theprocess may seem straight-forward, group discussions are often lengthy and one realizes thelack in time to capture the entire discussion in a presentation or a report.
In this workshop, we will use some tools to present topics from case studies in a logical sense.Using some reading material and a case-study, we will navigate through the process ofstructuring arguments and effectively communicating them (either in a presentation or a casereport document).
