BUSI 830 Week 5 (5.2) Explanatory Case Study Assignment
BUSI 830 Week 5 (5.2) Explanatory Case Study Assignment
OVERVIEW
Per the overview, in this module, analyzing case study evidence requires the researcher to review the data again to ensure you haven’t overlooked or minimized some piece, think way ‘outside the box’, re-focus the research questions and propositions, study current research trends and philosophies, and do more qualitative literary research.
This is the essence of the iterative process of analysis. Finally, as we discuss the Explanatory Case Study, we see some circumstances remove the Explanatory from a candidate case due to being ineffective. You will draft an Explanatory Case Study (avoiding historiographical tendencies) that is used to explain causal relationships that replicates a previous experiment.
INSTRUCTIONS
After reviewing the Learn material for the Module: Week, address the following paper in current APA format:
1. Distinguish rival explanations and interpretations within your case study
2. Explain the circumstances where an Explanatory Case Study would be most effective
3. Explain the difference between an Explanatory Case Study and Historiography
4. Draft an Explanatory Case Study that replicates a previous experiment suitable for disseminating for future use. You will fold in elements of Lean Six Sigma as role modeled in the Furterer article. (Also see Boxes 1 & 4, and Applications #8 &# 9 (Yin, 2018).
