Case Study Method as an Educational Model(Implications for the Explanation of Martyr Soleimani’s School)

Problem-based teaching methodology, more specifically case-based methodology, is an effective method of problem-orientation, reasoning and motivational learning. This analytical-descriptive research, reviewing documents and experience, is intended to present a new and practical reading of this method and its implications for explaining Martyr Soleimani’s School. Thus, while reviewing  the concept, objectives, origins, and advantages of the case study, the types of case studies are introduced in view of how they are formulated (short or long, real or fictitious, single-stage or multi-stage, static or dynamic, textual or spoken, explanatory or interrogative), the method of implementation (in the field or out of the field, individual or collective, single or multi-session, group or team, with or without accessibility, closed or open ended), and the role of instructors and teachers (descriptors, explainers, facilitators, active actors). The researchers continued with explaining four other considerations in pre-compilation stage (documentary or imaginative, inductive or deductive approach, individual or situational orientation, deep or wide looking). Moreover, nine operational steps are identified for the case study implementation stage along with some points regarding the evaluation phase. To end, if we want to know and introduce Martyr Soleimani as a school, we are supposed to pay more attention to him and others commanders like him in the university curriculum in a new and different way. A simple way to achieve this goal is to benefit from case study model of education which cannot be achieved unless people who are close to Martyr Soleimani gather and synergize scholars of management and literary intellectuals to present an attractive, effective and real case study.
