An extended case study allows students to explore a scenario in depth from different perspectives through independent research. It involves providing students a case study and role, having them research and prepare findings, then presenting to a panel who can ask questions. This develops critical thinking as students consider different viewpoints and stakeholders. It benefits students by allowing in-depth study, developing critical thinking and reflection skills, and considering different perspectives on a topic. Setting it up requires a team approach for complexity.
