Abstract

Students in online classrooms must be prepared with the skills necessary to be successful in the twenty-first century. Pink (2005) stressed that educators must provide learning that not only engages the left-brain thinkers but also the right-brained thinkers who will create and problem solve. To meet that goal, and at the same time challenge learners to develop critical thinking skills, the case study method was employed and examined. This chapter explores the use of the traditional case study method expanded to include personal portfolio entries that lay the foundation for active learning.
